ESTO SI ES MEMORIA HISTÓRICA
Imagino que ya conoces esta historia pero, por si acaso, no me cuesta nada recordarla y mucho más en estos días en los que el cobarde y rastrero alcalde de La Coruña ha retirado la estatua en HONOR al creador de nuestra LEGIÓN, que es de todos los españoles. Mi modesto gesto de desagravio ante tanta infamia como se está cometiendo en España
Ésta es la historia de El Novio de la Muerte, a ella le acompaño un breve preámbulo que es should listen to it before the version of the song also included. The version of Lola Montes is the original and can say it is a historical song.
THE BOYFRIEND OF DEATH:
Fidel Prado, wrote the score for a "couplet" whose lyrics gave the Catalan composer Juan Costa, who was set to music.
In Malaga released in the theater Vital Aza, a famous cupletista called "Lola Montes" an extraordinary success.
One of the functions of the company's "Lola Montes" was present Duchess of Victoria, who ran the Red Cross hospitals in Morocco. After the show, the illustrious lady went to the canzonetas and said, "Look, Lola, that you have to sing in Melilla."
General is conducting an offensive in the land that can end the war. You, with this couplet, so beautiful, so dramatic, so patriotic, you can contribute largely to something as important as raising the morale of the population. I will recommend for you to act as grand finale, in the company of Valeriano León, which is presented here in a few days ... "And did so with what "Lola Montes" march to Melilla with the company of the great comic acting as a "grand finale", a customary practice in vogue then.
This cupletista lived in the square the harrowing days of July 1921, in which the expected assault on the city by the victorious Annual Kabyle, which had stopped to loot villages immediate Melilla.
Lieutenant Colonel Millán-Astray, chief of the Legion, saw the title of Prado and Costa, by the emotional force which contained the lyrics, singing valuable Legion, which would be interpreted, since then, the pace of progress .
Later in 1952, musician, music director of the Legion, Ángel García Ruiz, had the idea of \u200b\u200badapting the pace of the work to the processional of the Holy Week processions in Ceuta thus claimed their lyrics and music more expressive dramatic dimension, becoming a solemn song to honor the "death of the Legion."
