Full biography Emilio Arrieta
Pascual Emilio Arrieta y Corera , who is better known as Emilio Arrieta, was a Spanish composer born on October 21, 1821, in Puente la Reina, Navarra. He is recognized for his contributions to zarzuela, a Spanish genre of musical theater that combines spoken word, song, and dance. Arrieta wrote more than 50 zarzuelas, including "Marina," which is probably his best-known work.
In addition to his work in zarzuela, Arrieta also wrote operas, chamber music, and orchestral works. He was a student at the Madrid Conservatory where he studied composition under Emilio Arrieta and was heavily influenced by Italian opera. After graduating, he devoted himself to writing operas under the favor of Queen Isabel II.
Arrieta enjoyed much success throughout his career and is considered one of the most important composers of zarzuela in the 19th century. He died on February 11, 1894, in Madrid, Spain, leaving a valuable contribution to Spanish and European music history.
