KAIA QUARTANGO

Featuring tango music from the Rio de la Plata region, Quartango is an embrace between two musical worlds: the spontaneity and passion of tango with the nuance and blend of the classical string quartet.
​

“Through Quartango the quartet sings with emotions. The precise rhythm, intonation and ​blend of sound all work as a unit that serve the music.”
-Mtro. Tulio Belardi, former principal conductor of 
Porto Alegre Symphony Orchestra, Brazil

The album brings together tango music from Astor Piazzolla, Carlos Gardel, Osvaldo Fresedo, Pedro Laurenz, Sebastian Piana and Gerardo Matos Rodriguez. Bandoneón player Richard Scofano joins the quartet for two iconic works, La Cumparsita and Milonga de mis amores. Kaia’s combination of classical training and passion for world music makes them uniquely poised to bring the music of Quartango to life.
