About
Vale Tango is an Argentine tango sextet founded in 1999, based in Buenos Aires. The ensemble specializes in contemporary interpretations of traditional and modern tango repertoire, maintaining a six-piece instrumental configuration. The group has recorded extensively across multiple albums including Músicas de noche (2002), Bardi (2005), and the two-volume Tango baile series (2010), in addition to a live performance documentation from La Viruta (2009). Vale Tango’s work has been distributed through EPSA Music and Winter & Winter labels. The ensemble has collaborated with vocalist Esteban Riera and musician Andrés Linetzky on various projects. As a contemporary tango orchestra, Vale Tango represents the post-1990s evolution of ensemble-based tango performance in Argentina, contributing to the broader neotango movement through concert recordings and collaborative projects.
