Cuenca’s November music calendar includes the VII Encuentro Internacional de Docentes de Música de Cuenca and the XV Jornadas de Didáctica de la Música y Musicología, scheduled for 6 and 7 November 2026 at the Faculty of Education of the University of Castilla-La Mancha (UCLM). The two-day meeting forms part of Estival Científico, a section of the Estival Cuenca festival.
The programme focuses on music education and scholarship, bringing together teachers and researchers alongside students to discuss current challenges in the field. Six specialists are set to headline the 2026 edition. Its title identifies the event as the seventh international meeting of music teachers and the fifteenth edition of the music-didactics and musicology sessions.
Cuenca’s broader music programme features other events with distinct formats and venues. In October, the city’s agenda included the VIII Ciclo de Música Militar, whose closing concert was scheduled for 22 October at the Teatro Auditorio José Luis Perales, with free admission subject to capacity. The programme also included the XXI Encuentro de Vihuela, Laúd y Guitarra at the Fundación Antonio Pérez, with performances by Silvestre Peña and the duo Victoria Casano and Ramiro Morales.
Onda Cero Cuenca’s “Musiquerías” segment, presented by Estructura Antonio de la Ossa, surveyed a varied programme, from military and early music to orchestras and new performers. Other listed concerts included performances by La Brújula and París de Noia, alongside live events linked to AIE.
The music programme coincides with Cuenca’s Festival de Otoño, which runs from 9 October to 7 November across five weekends and combines music with the performing arts and wider cultural programming, including heritage and gastronomy. By 23 October, the festival had attracted around 2,000 people, information from La Tribuna de Cuenca.
