A one-hour journey through Argentine music

Alvarado and Gerardo Villar y Los Aguirre will bring a programme rooted in music from Argentina, moving from the works of Astor Piazzolla to zambas and original ballads. The recital has no interval, making this a compact evening performance for listeners interested in tango, guitar music and vocal-led Latin American repertoire.

The published programme includes Piazzolla works Milonga del Trovador, Jacinto Chiclana and Vuelvo al Sur. The event description presents Alvarado as a tenor whose performances have ranged from orchestral and big-band settings to intimate voice-and-guitar concerts.

Martín Alvarado joins Gerardo Villar y Los Aguirre

Alvarado has been recognised by Argentina’s National Academy of Tango as a Maestro, a title awarded to him in 2019. For this Cambridge concert, he joins fellow porteño musicians Gerardo Villar y Los Aguirre, placing the voice-and-guitar combination at the centre of the programme.
