About Tango Guitarist

About Tango Guitarist – an exclusive wedding guitarist based in Brisighella, Italy

Having honed his artistry through numerous engagements across Spain and beyond, performing with a refined selection of groups, bands, and acoustic ensembles, he is now entirely devoted to the Plays Piazzolla project.

This bespoke endeavour presents the music of Astor Piazzolla—master of Tango Nuevo—through a distinctly personal and contemporary interpretation, rendered with impeccable elegance.

He is regularly curated for weddings and distinguished events at Ristorante Neccio in Pisa, as well as the exquisite regions of Lago di Como, Lago di Garda, and Umbria.

Piazzolla’s Nuevo Tango diverges from traditional tango by embracing elements of jazz and employing dissonances and other innovative techniques. Renowned compositions such as "Oblivion," "Libertango," "Milonga del Angel," "Night Club," "Café 1930," "Tango Final Tema di Maria," and "Tangata del Alba" are interpreted exclusively on the Spanish guitar, infused with the flamenco flair that defines his signature style.

This singular approach renders each piece both original and captivating—whether presented as a concert performance or as an evening of ambient sophistication.

He specialises in solo concerts at the most prestigious resorts and hotels, as well as venues that cherish music of exceptional artistic quality and originality.

The challenge of reimagining Astor Piazzolla’s oeuvre in a manner that is both personal and contemporary, while preserving the flamenco essence that characterises his playing, has brought him profound satisfaction and acclaim in every setting he graces.
