Blas de Laserna Nieva (1751 in Corella, Navarra – 1816 in Madrid) was a Spanish composer. Laserna was one of the most prolific and popular songwriters of late eighteenth and early nineteenth century Spain. As an educator, he championed traditional Spanish musical forms, but as a theatrical impresario gave in to the public taste for Italian forms. He composed several operas and concertos, as well as incidental music for several comedies in the popular Spanish theater. <a href="https://www.last
