Tango Master Piazzolla by OrquestaTanguedia

Astor Piazzolla, the Argentinian bandoneonist, composed a vast oeuvre that revolutionized traditional tango. TANGUEDIA is a Belgian orquest whose name came from a Piazzolla album with the same name. It was established in 1993, as in memoriam one year after dying the tango master. After a long pause the ensemble was again activated in 1998. In 2000, TANGUEDIA knew its definite formation, six young Antwerp musicians from several professional worlds but with one common passion. For more info about the band go here and here. To buy tickets for the 22nd January Concert at Ancienne Belgique go here.
