World | Pablo Ziegler Classical Tango Quartet

by

It's a new-fangled tango or, to put it more properly, Nuevo Tango, the infectious Argentinian musical style popularized by Astor Piazzolla. Pianist extraordinaire Pablo Ziegler worked with Piazzolla for over 10 years before starting his own Classical Tango Quartet. Ziegler has one Latin Grammy award under his belt and, in 2013, was nominated for two more. His current group specializes in a wonderful brand of classical/tango fusion with Hector Del Curto, bandoneon (concertina), Jisoo Oh, cello, and Pedro Girando, double bass.

Pablo Ziegler Classical Tango Quartet performs Tuesday, January 21, 8 p.m. at Kilbourn Hall, 26 Gibbs St. $15. 274-1100, esm.rochester.edu.
