I love to search for new things. The fact is that Martn y Soler has always been one of my favourite composers, and I have listened to his music for many years. His operas are a great example of the italian influence and they show a wonderful mixture between the popular and the elegant style. ''Una Cosa Rara'' was so successful that Mozart incorporated the melody of one of its arias in Don Giovanni. Here you have the links if you want to see it ;)
