Tango Ensemble

Tango Ensemble

Born within the context of the Koninklijk Conservatorium Brussel, SoundAmerican brings together three young musicians from diverse cultural backgrounds, united by the desire to approach tango from a contemporary perspective, balancing the Río de la Plata tradition with a present-day artistic vision. The intimate combination of voice, piano and violin offers a chamber-music reading of the tango canción, where text, instrumental gesture and shared breath shape a direct and expressive musical discourse.

Far from nostalgic reconstruction, the ensemble seeks a fresh sound in dialogue with the present. It integrates the Argentine and Uruguayan heritage of the genre into a classical training and an artistic sensibility developed in Brussels. Tango emerges here as a living language, constantly evolving.

The project brings together the French violinist Juliette Didine, whose work explores sound and interdisciplinary projects; the Venezuelan pianist Sebastian Crespo, performer and pedagogue trained between Europe and Latin America; and the Uruguayan tenor Martín Gestido, currently pursuing a Bachelor’s degree at the Koninklijk Conservatorium Brussel. Together, they create a musical space that unites tradition, artistic research and a generational vision open to dialogue.

After the concert, the bar will be open. You are warmly invited to stay for a drink and a friendly chat.
