String Quartets By Del... - Cuarteto Novecento - Audio CD (Arrives in 50 days)

For historical reasons, the literature for string quartets in Spain is not very abundant. This emblematic form of chamber music did not have an easy journey and Galicia was not an exception. This new recording however brings together 3 string quartets by 3 Galician composers from 3 consecutive centuries: Marcial del Adalid y Gurréa (1826-1881), José Arriola (1895-1954) and Juan Durán (born 1960). Three representative composers of their own respective living time, nurtured in the musical tradition of their era, however each finding a personal language and emotional impact.

This new recording marks the CD debut of the Cuarteto Novecento, gathering four musicians of different European origin: Ildikó Oltai (Hungary), Irina Gruia (Rumania), Ioana Ciobotaru (Rumania) and Millán Abeledo (Spain) are members of the Real Filharmonía de Galicia, based in Santiago de Compostela, musicians who feel Galicia as their own and, along with it, its music.
