Composer Arturo Cardelús is celebrated for his memorable melodies and evocative scores. His latest work, Buñuel in the Labyrinth of the Turtles, earned a nomination for the Goya Award for Best Original Music and won best score awards at the Málaga and Annecy film festivals. Recently, Cardelús composed the score for the viral short film In a Heartbeat, the Netflix Original miniseries Call Me Francis, the Billy Zane drama Centurion XII, and Black Beach, directed by Oscar nominee Esteban Crespo.
In 2016, Cardelús was honored as an Associate of the Royal Academy of Music for his contributions to concert music. His compositions have been performed across Europe, Asia, and the United States, in venues such as Madrid's Auditorio Nacional, Tokyo's Kioi Hall, Seoul's Arts Center Concert Hall, and Boston's Jordan Hall. In 2015, Naxos, a leading classical music label, released an album featuring Cardelús's chamber music, including the suite Con Aire de Tango, commissioned by Berlin Philharmonic soloists and recorded at Berlin's Philharmonie. He has also written chamber works commissioned by the Natalia Ensemble, Cuarteto Granada, and Tanya Gabrielian, with performances by Gidon Kremer's Kremerata Baltica and violinist Iwao Furusawa.
Originally from Madrid, Cardelús now resides in Los Angeles.
