During a successful career of more than 25 years, Oudrid produced over a hundred works, many in association with other composers. His first musical presentation was the Andalusian zarzuela ''La Venta del Puerto o Juanillo El Contrabandista'', premiered at Teatro del Príncipe in 1846. His second venture was '' ...
