CloseTango Siempre present their new septet project Malandras del Tango with a programme of intense and passionate music fusing the sound of a traditional tango orquesta típica with Astor Piazzolla’s radical reworking of the tango tradition.
Bandoneons and strings evoke the lush, expansive romance of the Buenos Aires tango orquestas of the 1930s and 40s; the stirring, intense voice of Guillermo Rozenthuler recalls Carlos Gardel’s songs of longing and despair; traditional tango collides with virtuosic jazz improvisation and thrilling rhythmic propulsion.
“Tango Siempre – a brilliant fusion of classical, tango, jazz and roots.” **** The Guardian
“That rare thing, Brit tango with attitude.” **** Songlines
