The Nuevo Tango Ensamble was founded in 1999 by Pasquale Stafano and Gianni Iorio in order to celebrate Astor Piazzolla`s music, but also to rearrange it. The Trio approximates Piazzolla’s compositions with deep admiration with the aim to interpret the complex musical expressions and the characteristical sounds from Buenos Aires. This convergence became quickly a deep passion of Nuevo Tango Ensamble, supported by the enthusiastic feedback by the audience.

For 3 years now the Trio tours with the Tango-Jazz project „A night for Astor“ through Europe to present Piazzolla’s compositions as a mixture of Tango and Jazz to the listeners. With this project „A night for Astor“ the Nuevo Tango Ensamble established itself over the years at theaters, but also at Jazz Clubs and at festivals. They just did a festival tour through the Arab Emirates in summer 2008.

The Trio Nuevo Tango Ensamble already worked with international well-known Jazz musicians like the saxophonist Javier Girotto and the clarinettist Gabriele Mirabassi. In 2001 their first CD „Astor`s Mood“ was released, the second album „A night in Vienna for Astor Piazzolla“, recorded at Porgy & Bess in Vienna, followed in 2005.

Now the latest album of the Nuevo Tango Ensambles is in the starting blocks. For “Tango Mediterraneo“ they worked with Gabriele Mirabassi who has an excellent reputation as clarinettist by now. The album will include primary self-made compositions of Pasquale Stafano and Gianni Iori besides two Astor Piazolla interpretations. “Tango Mediterraneo“ will be released on the Freiburg based label Jazzhaus Records in September 2008.
