Ensemble Hyperion from Italy
A short while ago, we presented the CD “Para mi Esposa” by Luis Stazo (former bandoneón player of Sexteto Mayor). We then became aware of another Tango ensemble in which Luis Stazo also
participates, the Ensemble Hyperion, we do not want to withhold from our readers.
Since its conception in 1992, the Hyperion Ensemble has developed a wide repertory of tango music and has performed at festivals, theaters, tango parties, and concert halls all over Europe,

Sexteto Andorinha & Sergio Gobi
Everybody dancing Tango regularly, at least in Europe, will have met the Sexteto Andorinha. They are a popular live orchestra and they have already performed “from Moskau to Madrid, from Uppsala to Zürich”. In all these places, the musicians have shown their devotion to Tango. The latest production “De Puro Curda” presents 16 titles, written for example by Astor Piazzolla, Francisco Canaro and Aníbal Troilo. Yet, there are also three compositions by Peter Reil (Bandoneón) seamlessly fitting in. A beautiful album (also visually), which will not only please the dancers.

Juan Carlos Cáceres: Utopia
The musician with the characteristic, husky voice is back with a new album: “Utopía”. His Tango, which is a fusion of various rhythms like Tango, Milonga, Candombe and Murga, is admired by music enthusiasts and dancers alike. The percussion elements add a dynamic and fascinating rhythm to the tracks. The singer, trombonist, pianist, composer and painter Cáceres has lived in Paris for many years and calls his music “Tango Negro”.
The CD is now ready for immediate delivery.

Bajofondo: Mar Dulce
This is the new release by Bajofondo, which has been eagerly awaited by all friends of Electrotango. Tango meets Candombe, Milonga, Electro and Hip-Hop, and an exciting composition of rhythms and sounds emerges, which turns out to be harmonious. The list of artists involved in the project is also fascinating: Ryota Komatsu, Elvis Costello, Mala Rodríguez, Nelly Furtado and Lágrima Ríos, together with the Argentinian and Uruguayan musicians of Bajofondo, enchant the audience of “Mar Dulce”.
