About This Item
This album features mastered versions of works performed live by the Quatuor Diotima at the Fundacion Juan March on 27 April 2022 and 14 February 2024. It presents the world premiere recordings of String Quartets Nos. 8 and 9 and of the Intermezzo Scherzo on the surname Mi-la-nes by Conrado del Campo (1878-1953), one of the most original but least well-known Spanish composers of the first half of the twentieth century. The concert was part of the Proyecto Conrado, launched in 2021, which involves programming the first complete cycle of his thirteen string quartets. This will go hand in hand with the production of a complete edition of the scores, most of which have never been published, and the of recordings of the quartets. The aim of this ambitious initiative is to rescue a significant body of works from the undeserved neglect into which they have fallen. Album Tracks 4. String Quartet No. 8 in E major~IV. Allegro moderado, muy decidido, rítmico, vehemente 5. Intermezzo-Scherzo on the Surname Mi-la-nes 1. String Quartet No. 9 in D major~I. Molto moderato y patético
