This recording, 'Conrado del Campo: String Quartets Nos. 3 & 5', is a significant release from the March Vivo label, presenting the first world recording of String Quartets Nos. 3 and 5 (six-movement version) by Conrado del Campo (1878-1953). Campo is recognized as one of the most original and overlooked Spanish composers of the early 20th century. The performance features the Quatuor Diotima, captured in a remastering of their concert at the Fundación Juan March on April 27, 2022. This release is part of the ambitious 'Proyecto Conrado,' dedicated to programming the entirety of Campo's thirteen string quartets for the first time.

This effort aims to bring back into circulation the unjustly forgotten repertoire of this composer, whose music is characterized by its monumental and passionate nature, stemming from his distinct creative temperament. The recording has also received critical acclaim, winning the 'First Recording' category at the 2023 International Classical Music Awards (ICMA).
