The Piazzolla Da Camera Trio celebrates ten years dedicated to the exclusive performance of the works of modern tango master Astor Piazzolla. Having travelled the world to bring attention to the beauty and bravado of what audiences and critics have celebrated as ‘exquisitely Argentine’ and ‘simply delicious in execution’, this brotherhood of musicians strive to look beyond the written note, and bring to light the rich colours and sounds of the Buenos Aires cityscape.

Established in 2011, The Bardac Trio is a fresh new ensemble formed by young postgraduates of Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music. Collectively they have delighted audiences across the UK and worldwide with their sensitive and enchanting performances. For this event they explore their shared Spanish roots with a sumptuous programme of Mediterranean works for flute, viola, and that most heavenly of instruments; the harp. The Bolívar Hall provides the perfect intimate setting to get a rare glimpse of this compelling instrument up close. An evening not to be missed!

Tango Extremo brings a distinctive flavour to the passion and persuasion of the Argentine Tango. The ensemble, which is under the direction of the young violinist Tanya Schaap, is not a standard tango orchestra. The line up is slightly unusual (with the addition of soprano saxophone) and the group combines musical styles which are very diverse. Juxtaposing an exciting mixture of classical, jazz, improvisation and Brazilian music with tango, the trio will perform arrangements of pieces by Debussy, Rachmaninoff, Shaffy, Cabral, Brel, Piazzolla, Plaza and Laurenz, all in the tango style.
