    Jerónimo Giminéz was born in Seville in 1854. He joined the local opera house as a violinist at the age of twelve and became director of the Opera at only seventeen. He went on to study at the Paris Conservatoire and returned to Spain in 1885 to be director of the Teatro Apollo in Madrid.

    His special interest was in composing the 'Zarzuela', a light opera much inspired by Spanish folk music and dance. This Intermezzo is from one of the most popular of these: it translates as 'The Marriage of Luis Alonzo'. This is a colourful, virtuoso piece and requires an extrovert, bravura quality in performance.
