Opera Southwest will present “Doña Clementina” this April.

The work by Luigi Boccherini and Ramón de la Cruz, will be sung in Spanish at the National Hispanic Cultural Center-Journal Theatre in Albuquerque.

It stars Teresa Castillo, Alejandra Sandoval, Laurel Semerdjian, Christian Garcia, Carlos Arculeta, and Christina Martos. Darwin Aquino conducts a production directed by Pat Diamond.

The work was originally composed as a zarzuela and had its debut in Madrid in 1799 before disappearing for 150 years; its revival came in Venice in 1951 and has reappeared throughout Europe in subsequent decades.

The opera will get three performances on April 6, 11, and 13, 2025.
