Livet Nord, who runs the company, is representing the world touring sextett New Tango Orquesta and the trio Kaja from Sweden, both highly acclaimed by the critics.


NEW TANGO ORQUESTA

Since the beginning in 1996, New Tango Orquesta have, on five albums and a countless number of international tours up to now, with the composer Per Stoerby as a leader, explored and developed the concept of "nuevo tango". With their unique mix of baroque music, tango, free improvisation, minimalism and romantique, they have gained territory all over the world with their special sound.

Both NTO and Kaja recieve support from the Swedish Council for Cultural Affairs.
