Contrapunto concert at CaixaForum Zaragoza May 24

CaixaForum Zaragoza is scheduled to present “Contrapunto” on Sunday, May 24, 2026, as part of its music season, according to the venue’s event listing. The concert brings together young performers from the Escuela Superior de Música Reina Sofía and the Conservatorio Superior de Música del Liceu in a joint ensemble created for the project. CaixaForum Zaragoza lists the event as a cocreation concert by young artists and prices entry at 10 euros. Conservatori del Liceu’s agenda page lists the start time as 7 p.m. ### Who is playing in “Contrapunto” at CaixaForum Zaragoza? The ensemble in “Contrapunto” is made up of 15 musicians from the two higher music schools, according to CaixaForum Zaragoza and the Conservatori del Liceu. The institutions describe the group as a one-off ensemble shaped through shared rehearsal, coexistence, creation and mutual discovery. The Reina Sofía School of Music and the Liceu Conservatory are named as the participating schools across the CaixaForum Zaragoza listing, the Liceu agenda page and the Reina Sofía School event page. (caixaforum.org) Fundación “la Caixa” said in a May 20 statement that it had signed a collaboration agreement with the Escuela Superior de Música Reina Sofía and the Fundación Conservatori Liceu to carry out the project. ### What makes this project different from a standard conservatory concert? (caixaforum.org) CaixaForum Zaragoza describes the performance as “un concierto sin artificios,” or a concert without artifice, in which the result comes through sound, listening and presence. The venue says the repertoire does not follow fixed formulas and instead is built collectively, between tradition and contemporaneity, with known works alongside new creations. (caixaforum.org) Fundación “la Caixa” said the project reflects a shared commitment by the three institutions to educational excellence and innovation. That characterization comes from the organizers, who presented “Contrapunto” as a collaborative artistic initiative rather than a standard touring program. ### Why are Barcelona and Madrid part of a concert in Zaragoza? (caixaforum.org) CaixaForum Zaragoza says the project acts as a cultural bridge between Barcelona and Madrid because it joins musicians from the Conservatori del Liceu, based in Barcelona, and the Reina Sofía School, based in Madrid. The concert is then opened to the public in Zaragoza as a live shared experience, according to the venue’s description. The May 20 MediaHub release from Fundación “la Caixa” places the collaboration in a broader institutional framework, saying the three organizations created the project together. (mediahub.fundacionlacaixa.org) That release was published four days before the scheduled performance in Zaragoza. ### What details are confirmed for the May 24 performance? Sunday, May 24, 2026, is the date listed on CaixaForum Zaragoza’s event page, on the venue home page and on the Liceu concert agenda. (caixaforum.org) The Liceu page specifies a 7 p.m. start time, while CaixaForum Zaragoza and Zaragozala identify the event as part of the local venue’s programming for that day. The ticket price is listed at 10 euros on both CaixaForum Zaragoza and Conservatori del Liceu pages. (mediahub.fundacionlacaixa.org) Zaragozala’s event entry also reproduces the core program description, including the line: “Quince músicos. Un mismo deseo: hacer música juntos.” ### Where can readers find the official event information? CaixaForum Zaragoza carries the official concert page under its Zaragoza programming and music season listings. Conservatori del Liceu and the Reina Sofía School also maintain event pages for the same project, each describing the joint ensemble and the collaborative process behind it. (caixaforum.org) May 24 is the next public date attached to “Contrapunto” in the materials reviewed, with CaixaForum Zaragoza set to host the concert at 7 p.m. and tickets listed at 10 euros.
