Contrapunto: Jóvenes músicos en CaixaForum

CaixaForum Zaragoza will stage “Contrapunto” on Sunday, May 24, 2026, as part of its musical season, according to the venue’s program. The concert brings together 15 young musicians from the Escuela Superior de Música Reina Sofía and the Conservatorio Superior de Música del Liceu for what organizers describe as a cocreation project. CaixaForum lists the event price at 10 euros, while partner listings place the performance at 7 p.m. in Zaragoza. The concert is one stop in a six-city run that also includes Barcelona, Palma, Seville, Madrid and Valencia. ### Who is playing in Zaragoza on May 24? Fifteen musicians from the Conservatorio Superior de Música del Liceu and the Escuela Superior de Música Reina Sofía make up the ensemble for “Contrapunto,” according to the event pages published by Conservatori Liceu and ZaragozaLa. The project is presented as a joint performance by students from the Barcelona- and Madrid-linked institutions rather than by a standing orchestra or resident CaixaForum group. The organizers describe the format as an ensemble created through shared rehearsal time, living together, creation and mutual discovery. Conservatori Liceu says the musicians “comparten días de ensayo, convivencia, creación y descubrimiento mutuo” to shape a single group for the performances. ### What kind of concert is “Contrapunto”? The Conservatori Liceu listing says the program is built as a collective construction “entre tradición y contemporaneidad, entre obras conocidas y nuevas creaciones.” That description indicates a repertoire combining established works with new material rather than a fixed canonical program announced in advance. ZaragozaLa and Conservatori Liceu both describe the result as “un concierto sin artificios,” with the performance centered on sound, listening and presence. Neither listing published a full work-by-work program in the material available as of May 19. ### Why are Reina Sofía and Liceu appearing together? The participating institutions are presented as equal partners in a cocreation project rather than in a guest appearance by one school at the other’s venue. Conservatori Liceu says the resulting repertoire becomes “un puente cultural entre Barcelona y Madrid,” linking the two schools through a shared ensemble. The collaboration is framed by the organizers as a process as much as a performance. The event text says the project grows out of dialogue, time spent together and “la voluntad de construir algo en común,” language repeated across the CaixaForum-linked listings. ### When and where is the Zaragoza performance? CaixaForum Zaragoza lists “Contrapunto” for Sunday, May 24, 2026, in its activities program. The center is located at Avenida de Anselmo Clavé, 4, 50004 Zaragoza, according to its visitor information page. ZaragozaLa and Conservatori Liceu both place the concert at 19:00. CaixaForum Zaragoza’s general information page says the center opens daily from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., which covers the scheduled evening performance window. ### Is Zaragoza the only stop? Conservatori Liceu says the project reaches the stage in six concerts: Barcelona, Zaragoza, Madrid, Seville, Palma and Valencia. The same listing shows later dates for Palma on May 26, Seville on May 29, Madrid on May 30 and Valencia on May 31. The Zaragoza date comes near the start of that run. The multi-city schedule suggests the same collaborative ensemble will travel beyond Aragon after the May 24 performance. ### How can people attend? CaixaForum Zaragoza lists the ticket price at 10 euros on its home program page. ZaragozaLa also lists the event with a 10-euro cost and directs readers to event information and calendar tools. The next concrete step is Sunday, May 24, 2026, at 7 p.m. at CaixaForum Zaragoza, with ticketing and event details available through CaixaForum Zaragoza and ZaragozaLa.
