Pablo Ziegler & Christopher O’Riley – Tango Nuevo

Pianist, composer, and arranger Pablo Ziegler has one multiple awards for his accomplishments, the most prestigious of which being a Latin Grammy Award. Ziegler’s career began when he performed in tango master Astor Piazzolla’s legendary quintet. Since then, Ziegler has become the face of Argentine New Tango- an exciting hybrid of tango and jazz. Pianist Christopher O’Riley is known to many as the host of NPR’s From the Top. He performs a wide variety of music, from Renaissance to modern and avant-garde. He has been praised for his relentless efforts to reach new audiences, and performs concerts both solo and with orchestras all over the world. “There’s no question that Ziegler takes the tango to levels of sophistication and refinement probably undreamed of by Piazzolla.” (Chicago Tribune)
