The staging of the piece, with music of the own Vitier and with an important public acceptance, was seen by Marcelo Ebrard, Chief of Government of Mexico City, as well as by important Mexican intellectuals and personalities.

The staging was made by Lorena Maza and the cast included the tenors Fernando de la Mora and Hernán de Riego, the soprano Lourdes Ambriz and the mezzo sopranos Grace Echauri and Verónica Alexanderson.
