Roberto ALAGNA
Besame Mucho, Piensa en mí, La Cumparsita, Historia de un amor, Quizás, quizás, quizás, La Llorona ...
We all know these seemly ageless melodies which are some of the most popular the in latin America music scene. In the song Pasión, Roberto Alagna takes his audience for an extraordinary walk into the Cuban bolero, the Mexican ranchera and the Argentinian tango. From one great classic to another, he brings to live the myths of his great predecessors in his repertoires - Carlos Gardel, Pedro Infante, Jorge Negrete, Agustin Lara.
These songs come from the earth, these are the music of the peasants, of the herders, the gauchos, says Roberto Alagna. These were created to be danced to, that’s why it’s important not to modify them from their original state, by changing its colors or the intentions that guiding its original creation. Like most of the popular repertoires, these songs do not function properly when attempts are made to adapt them to the Opera…
Like all the Sicilian songs that I have produced or performed on stage, I am usually guided by my instinct, all these songs speak to me instantly, in just the same way they speak to the public. I have an exuberant temperament, but deep inside me, I remain a romantic … which is why at the end of the day, I still take part in the Opera!
