The internationally acclaimed quartet combines the unlikely task of playing classics like Brahms or Grieg and popular tunes like ABBA or James-Bond-Theme as if it was argentine tango. At the same time they frequently figure as soloist with prestigious symphony orchestras in Europe like BBC Symphony Orchestra or Deutsche KammerPhilharmonie as well as several orchestras in Scandinavia.
Their combination of traditional argentine tango ("Tango as it should be..." BUENOS AIRES HERALD),
audace versions of Piazzolla, and their own inspired compositions give them a unique sound that is combined with a humorous and energetic attitue not common in the tango world. ("The truth is that i love them" F. Suarez Paz, violinist in Piazzollas quintet)
They challenge the boundaries of tango without loosing the essential ingredients.
