Eclectic Series: RADIOTANGO / Pablo Ziegler Chamber Quartet
RADIOTANGO is the latest program from Grammy-winning pianist and composer Pablo Ziegler, who was the pianist for tango master Astor Piazzolla for over a decade. Inspired by the contemporary flavor of Buenos Aires and drawing from Pablo’s rich history as the leading exponent of nuevo tango, the program features original compositions from Ziegler that infuse the classical chamber quartet with the invigorating spirit of the tango. From the buoyant and playful energy of “Asfalto”, to the heady and emotional ballad “Maria Ciudad”, Ziegler takes you straight to the heart of Argentina’s glorious capital city.
