Biography
Ricardo Castro, pianist and composer was director of the National Conservatory, and there was assisted by a corps of teachers, consisting of fifty-five professors, nearly all Mexicans.
Señor Castro was Mexico’s foremost pianist and composer. His opera, “La Leyenda de Rudel” (“The Legend of Rudel”) has distinct merit and has found great popular favor. An Italian opera company playing in the city of Mexico offered their services for the first production of the opera, which took place in October of 1906, and was a signal triumph, not only for Ricardo Castro, but for Mexico, for it demonstrated the fact that there is latent talent among the people and that only careful development is necessary to produce a national music worthy of universal recognition.
