Federico Moreno Torroba (3 March 1891 – 12 September 1982) was a Spanish composer, born in Madrid. He is noted foremost for his important contributions to the classical guitar repertoire, although he also wrote for other instruments, including many zarzuelas and operas.
Moreno Torroba is often associated with the zarzuela, a traditional Spanish musical form. Directing several opera companies, Moreno Torroba helped introduce the zarzuela to international audiences. However, he is probably best known for his compositions for the classical guitar, many of which were dedicated to either Maria Angélica Funes or Andrés Segovia.
In addition to his conducting duties, he composed many works, both in the traditional Spanish form and for the concert hall. He achieved his greatest success in the 1930s with the zarzuelas Luisa Fernanda (1932) and La Chulapona (1934). He also composed several operas, of which La Virgen de Mayo (1925) and El Poeta (1980), with Plácido Domingo in the title role) are his best known.
A great example of the Madrid-born composer's prolific output that spanned his long career. While his most celebrated work is Madronos, this piece is a testimony to the fact that his inspiration is rooted in popular music, to which he adds a vocal style of melodic invention which reminds of his love of vocal music.
