Cabarute

The New York Tango Trio is made up of three of the hottest Tango players in the business, including Ra l Jaurena (bandoneon), Pablo Aslan (contrabass) and Ethan Iverson (piano). The pieces on this recording span almost the entire 100 year history of the tango, from the old milonga-inflected pieces such as El Portenito, to the straight dance numbers like Don Juan and El Once, from the classic Quejas de Bandoneon and Canaro en Paris, to the modern arrangements like a Primera Vista. Throughout this recording, Ra l Jaurena, bandoneonist and communicates his knowledge, not just of the music, but also shares a wealth of techniques and licks for every instrument, and the experience that comes from constant rehearsing the subtle nuances of rhythm and interpretations. He also added a true New York element to his arranging: improvisation. Pablo Aslan is fast becoming the most active and recognized Tango player in America today.
