from the Zarzuela La Gran Vía

If we say that zarzuela is Spanish light opera with spoken dialogue we shall be near the mark. Frederico Chueca composed many Zarzuela's. The Tango de la Menegilda (Housemaid's Tango) is sung in the 2nd scene of the Zarzuela La Gran Vía. In this famous song, the housemaid relates the dubious course of her brief career under the Lady of the House.
