The Sinfonietta of the Reina Sofía School of Music, whose goal is to tackle repertoires centred on the 20th and 21st centuries, offers a didactic concert that seeks to bring contemporary music closer to all types of audiences and help them to understand it.


The Sinfonietta, conducted by maestro Johannes Kalitzke, will perform Concerto funebre, for solo violin and string orchestra by Karl Amadeus Hartmann, with violinist María Ramos as soloist; Cripsis, for fourteen instruments, by Alberto Posadas, resident composer of the CNDM in the season 24/25; and Chamber Symphony No. 1 in E major, by Arnold Schoenberg.


El Dr. Òscar Colomina i Bosch, composer and dean of the Reina Sofía School of Music, will be the presenter of the concert and will guide us to listen, understand and enjoy the music.


Free of charge. Tickets can be collected at the Eduardo Úrculo Cultural Centre from Tuesday 22 April.


Concert performed in collaboration with the Madrid City Council's Department of Culture, Tourism and Sport.
