    • 2015 July 31, “Las chirigotas de Atenas”, in El País:
      Es imposible precisar cuanto hay de simpatía y cuanto de burla en Aristófanes, que se limitó a poner el tema sobre el tapete, a testar su comicidad y a dar espectáculo, pues entre escenas interpoló unos intermedios corales hoy perdidos, cuyo equivalente quieren ser los afortunados cantables que ha compuesto Javier Ruibal, sobre melodías reconocibles.
