Experience Cuarteto Casals live on August 25th

Cuarteto Casals will perform at the Seminario Mayor de Comillas in Comillas, Spain on August 25, 2026. The quartet is renowned for its intensely expressive and deeply researched interpretations of chamber music, particularly within the classical and contemporary repertoire. Their playing is characterized by a rich tonal palette, meticulous attention to phrasing, and a commitment to conveying the emotional core of each piece. Formed in 1997, Cuarteto Casals has established itself as one of the world’s foremost string quartets, consistently praised for both technical brilliance and artistic insight.

The Seminario Mayor de Comillas holds significant historical and architectural importance. Originally conceived as a grand seminary by Antonio Gaudí in 1883, though he left the project before completion, the building reflects a neo-Gothic style with notable contributions from other architects who followed. It served as a theological college for decades and played a role in training priests for Spanish-speaking countries. Today, it functions as a conference and cultural center while retaining its original architectural character and religious heritage. The building’s acoustics are considered favorable for musical performances due to its stone construction and spacious interior.
