Federico Moreno Torroba

Federico Moreno Torroba (left) with zarzuela baritone [[Plácido Domingo Ferrer]] backstage at the [[Teatro de la Zarzuela]] in Madrid, 1946 Federico Moreno Torroba (3 March 189112 September 1982) was a Spanish composer, conductor, and theatrical impresario. He is especially remembered for his important contributions to the classical guitar repertoire, becoming one of the leading twentieth-century composers for the instrument. He was also one of the foremost composers of zarzuelas, a form of Spanish light opera. His 1932 zarzuela ''Luisa Fernanda'' has proved to be enduringly popular. In addition, he composed ballets, symphonic works, and piano pieces, as well as one-act operas and one full-length opera, ''El poeta'', which premiered in 1980, starring well-known tenor Plácido Domingo. Moreno Torroba also ran his own zarzuela company, which toured extensively, especially in Latin America. Provided by Wikipedia
