Album Details

The couples take to the floor, the bandoneon draws a deep breath, the bow glides across the strings, fingers dance on the piano keys, the bass growls out the rhythm, as Quartango strikes up the band.

On their sixth recording, the four members of Quartango present a retrospective of their two-decade career, with 12 new interpretations of favourite pieces that have delighted their many audiences over the years. On the program: fast-paced milongas and original compositions, Angel Villoldo’s celebrated El Choclo, the classics La Cumparsita and Jalousie, and two of Astor Piazzolla’s most beautiful pieces. And, by popular request, an exquisite rendition of Gabriel’s Oboe by Ennio Morricone.
