Binghamton Faculty Recital Features Art Songs by Forgotten Mexican Composer
Binghamton University Assistant Professor Brenda Iglesias and pianist Curt Pajer will present a faculty recital titled 'Love, Loss, and Dreams' on Saturday, October 24, 2026, in the Anderson Center's Chamber Hall. The performance aims to bring the music of the forgotten Mexican composer Campa to new life, though no audio recordings exist for six of the seven songs Iglesias plans to perform. While Campa's scores from the late 19th and early 20th centuries sometimes contain errors in harmonies or text, Iglesias is currently transcribing them into clean versions for future performers. The outlet reports that Iglesias is actively searching for the composer's remaining works, which include orchestral pieces and a single opera. Readers should follow the original source link for the full story.
