Exhibition summary

This release features the world premiere recording of Conrado del Campo's String Quartet No. 10 and his Scherzo for String Quartet, performed by the Seikilos Quartet. It is part of an ambitious project to document and promote the complete works of this significant, yet underappreciated, Spanish composer.

Curatorial context

This album presents a mastery of a concert performed by the Seikilos Quartet at the Fundación Juan March on May 28, 2025. It includes the world premiere recording of Conrado del Campo's String Quartet No. 10 (1945) and his Scherzo for String Quartet (1911). Conrado del Campo (1878–1953) was one of the most original and least known Spanish composers of the first half of the twentieth century. This recording is part of the extensive 'Conrado Project,' launched in 2021. This initiative aims to present, for the first time, the complete body of his thirteen string quartets and to publish a comprehensive edition of the scores, most of which remain unpublished. The project also includes recordings released by the MarchVivo label, supporting the recovery of a repertoire that has been unfairly consigned to oblivion. The Scherzo in E minor, noted for its classical structure and refined contrapuntal texture, shows influences of Beethovenian origin.

Admission and ticket notes

Available on digital platforms, in record stores, and in the Fundación Juan March store. A digital booklet is also provided.
