• World-famous tenor Plácido Domingo as conductor of Spanish music which has always been particularly close to his heart

• Program includes delightful “zarzuela” arias, sung by Ana Maria Martinez, winner of the Plácido Domingo Vocal Competition in Barcelona
  
  
• DVD captures the unique atmosphere of the Berlin Philharmonic’s annual summer concert from the Berlin Waldbühne, one of the most successful open-air concerts to feature classical music

“Sarah Chang’s flawless technique and her boldly imaginative playing elicited thunderous applause and, following Jules Massenet’s Méditation, played with touchingly noble tone, she received a standing ovation.” Tagesspiegel

“Ana Maria Martinez was irresistible with the proudly passionate and dangerously flickering warmth of her Zarzuela melodies.” Morgenpost
