Let go of preconceptions and relax something that gives us pleasure”, Tola pointed out in dialogue with NOTICIAS. The Argentine soprano based in Madrid returns to the country to make a repertoire that combines the classical with the popular.

“I’m not going to stop singing opera, but with chosen ones I can reach a wider, more effusive audience. it allows me try new things. With Geronimo we are both in Madrid, and we can rehearse here. We have six duets and four separate songs. He does Roxana for example, and then I join. The repertoire has things from María de Buenos Aires, Italian music, movie themes. We passed by different characters“, advancement. “I had already tried singing other things with Plácido Domingo. But there is no record of something like that for the Argentine public. It is an international level show”, celebrated Tola.

“With Virginia we are rehearsing here in Madrid, because she lives here too, and it is going to be something incredible. She reminds me a bit of Andrea Bocelli, Barbra Streisand, a bit of Il Divo, Josh Groban. It is very elegant what we are going to do, very entertaining and to show off, to tell stories, but with music”, added the former Mambrú, Geronimo Rauchready to star in “Los Puentes de Madison”, a musical based on the film of the same name that will be presented on Madrid’s Gran Vía, produced by RGB Entertainment (by Gustavo Yankelevich).

“That there is a production company that bets on a festival in the Colón, with a symphony, generating work for 100 people, it is to take off the hat, to applaud and thank”, returned the singer dedicated to the musical comedy about the show in the Buenos Aires coliseum. The “Únicos” Festival, which already had the presence of more than 150 artists, including Joan Manuel Serrat, Niña Pastori and Café Tacuba, among many others, will close its first semester of 2022 with a show by Los Nocheros and Palito Ortega at the Colón on June 20.
