Carlos Aragón’s musical direction gives the piece speed and decibels, but lacks anything in the way of grace and elegance to overcome a certain feeling of flatness in numbers as well-crafted as the chotis, the ranchera or the comic trio. These are compounded by a somewhat arthritic samba – and the unforgivable destruction of the pasodoble, amongst the most elegant of Alonso’s ‘calling cards’, but here interpreted in a rough and grotesque way.

A números bien cincelados como el chotis, la ranchera o el terceto cómico, se le une una samba un poco artrósica, y el destrozo imperdonable del pasodoble, elegantísimo como pocos y de trazo exquisito (marca de la casa alonsina), aquí interpretado de manera arrabalera y esperpéntica.
