Sexteto Milonguero formed in 2007 with the simple desire to make a dance repertoire, usually played in the milongas, emphasizing the 40s, and looking, despite the excellent versions heard for years , a personal sound of the band.
The only intention? … Continue the function of those great bands, not let the tango moves away from the neighborhood, the dancers, the popular, the milongas.
The style of the group, has a beginning, in essence, danceable. And over the years, also because of the diversity of places where they have been presented in recent years, such as theaters or festivals worldwide, have added to their extensive repertoire, a variety of songs that can be called only for concerts. Own songs, songs of Argentine folklore, etc..
This has allowed to show and merge the different influences that each one of the members of the sextet, which include: Argentina’s popular music, jazz, classical, rock, etc. …. Current contemporary influences.
With 10 years of carer, Sexteto Milonguero, played milongas, theaters and festivals throughout Argentina, made 2 tours in Latin America and 9 European tours covering more than 20 countries, and many cities plus Canada, Singapure and China.
