Leonardo Suarez Paz & Astor Piazzolla

Artistic Director and “virtuoso extraordinaire,” Leonardo Suarez Paz, creates across cultures and genres, continuing a family legacy of over 100 years in the genre, beginning with Gabino Ezeiza to Fernando Suarez Paz who was instrumental in creating the Nuevo Tango alongside Piazzolla. A member of the Orquesta Estable del Teatro Colon, Leonardo's work as a soloist includes the most distinguished tango orchestras such as those of Mariano Mores, Horacio Salgan, Atilio Stampone, Osvaldo Berlingieri and the shows Tangox2 and Perfumes de Tango where he was also featured as a dancer. He was the soloist in both Broadway tango shows Forever Tango and Tango Argentino, with Placido Domingo, Ruben Blades, Carlos Franzetti, Patience Higgins, Jim Hall, Kenny Drew Jr., Steve Kuhn, Savion Glover and many others. Following in the footsteps of his mentors Astor Piazzolla and Horacio Ferrer, Leonardo “shows us how easily we can communicate across cultures if the desire and effort are there.” (Wynton Marsalis, Artistic Director Jazz at Lincoln Center)

Leonardo Suarez Paz is surely now the torchbearer of Argentine Tango and the legacy of its greatest composer, Astor Piazzolla. |
The harmonically sophisticated arrangements by Leonardo Suárez Paz are superb, as is his sardonic Milonga de los monsters – an unlikely yet happy marriage of Prokofiev and tango nuevo.” |
Leonardo Suarez Paz is Tango Royalty... powerful and sensual. |
His knowledge of the tango violin playing conveys a century of individual styles. |
