The album aims for a delicate balance between virtuosic compositions and expressive simplicity, featuring pieces with reinterpreted South American rhythms and experimental sound explorations.
Album & Artwork
The album title, CHAMUYO, is an Argentine slang word pronounced 'chamoujo' and refers to the art of convincing others through eloquent, captivating speech.
Composer's Artistic Vision
The album's music is a reflection of the composers' dual French and Argentine cultures, blending tango with chamber music.
Performer Biography
The group is formed by the powerful encounter of two sought-after French chamber musicians, Sébastien Surel (violin) and Romain Descharmes (piano), with two prominent European tango musicians, Juanjo Mosalini (bandoneon) and Leonardo Teruggi (double bass).
Recording & Production
This album is the second collaboration between Juanjo Mosalini and Leonardo Teruggi, following their 2014 album 'Tango hoy'.
Compositional Technique
The composers intentionally included rhythms not typically found in tango, such as chacarera and candombe blanco, to explore new musical territories.
