Quadro Nuevo – Tango-Quartett

For almost 20 years of touring, Quadro Nuevo has been searching for the soul of tango. The adventurous virtuosos have traveled to countless places, explored daring styles of playing, and won two ECHO awards.

At the beginning of 2014, they packed up their instruments once again:
this time it wasn’t to go on tour, but on an expedition to Buenos Aires in the summer.

They took up residence in an old city villa, rehearsed for days in the shimmering midday heat, swarmed out in the evenings, plunged headlong into the scene, mingled with Argentine musicians, accompanied dancers, met famous tangueros and crazy street poets, held nightly conversations until dawn, and intoxicated themselves with heavy wine and fresh tango straight from the source. These experiences, transformed into music, took shape in the new Quadro Nuevo album “TANGO!”
