About Severino Reyes

Severino is known as the Father of Tagalog zarzuela (musical drama with spoken dialogue, which originated in Spain). He went by the nickname 'Lola Basyang'. Gervasia de Guzman-Zamora, or ‘Tandang Basiang’ to her family, became the basis for his character 'Lola Basyang' of the 'Mga Kuwento ni Lola Basyang’. Severino was connected by marriage to the Zamora family; his son Narciso married Maria Rosario Mendoza Zamora, Gervasia’s grand-daughter.
