Pedro Giraudo Tango Quartet
June 12 @ 2:00 pm
$30
Latin GRAMMY Award-winner Pedro Giraudo masters the passionate music of his native Argentina with a performance that celebrates tango — from its traditional roots to tango nuevo as epitomized by Astor Piazzolla — and now to a contemporary sound that respects the past and looks to the future.
Giraudo is among the most compelling tango artists today. After two decades performing with the most important interpreters of tango, Pedro Giraudo debuted his own Tango Orchestra at Lincoln Center’s Midsummer Night Swing in July 2015 and since then has become an active cultural ambassador of this beautiful music from his homeland.
As a composer and arranger, Giraudo leads his own jazz and tango ensembles and has been hailed by critics as one of the most creative and daring bandleaders on the scene today. His compositions combine his love of classical forms, Argentine tango and folk music, and the spontaneity of jazz improvisation.
John Murph of Downbeat described Giraudo’s music as “an opulent listening experience of modern, orchestral jazz, brimming with passionate improvisations, deliberate contrapuntal melodies and plush harmonies.”
