the past and future of tango in one unforgettable night
The Camarada Tango Quartet brings a fresh and compelling take on Argentina’s most iconic art form.

This powerhouse performance features The Camarada Tango Quartet with guest virtuoso Pablo Jaurena (bandoneon) and world-class tango dancers Carolina Jaurena and Andrés Bravo. The program journeys through legendary tango masters—Piazzolla, Troilo, Pugliese, Matos, d’Arienzo, and de Caro—bringing their timeless works to life with flair and precision. At the heart of the evening is a dynamic new commission by Andrés Martín, a bold and evocative work that pushes tango forward while honoring its rich legacy.

The Camarada Tango Quartet redefines the tango experience with a bold, post-Piazzolla approach—masterfully blending the soul of tango, a virtuosic classical vibe, and a rock ‘n’ roll edge. This ensemble breathes new life into tango with original works by the renowned composer and double bassist Andrés Martín. His insights and stories provide a rare glimpse into the creative process, making each performance an intimate dialogue between the audience and the art itself.

Witness tango in all its glory—raw, refined, and utterly unforgettable.
