ECHOES FESTIVAL | Darío Barozzi: 'The Argentine Guitar'

'Barozzi's guitar is an extension of his musical heart...' Diario Popular

Darío Barozzi is an artist who defies categorisation, his music existing happily at the intersection between the classical and the popular, moving seamlessly between art music, tango, folk and free improvisation. At the forefront of the newest generation of Argentine guitarists, Barozzis interpretations and original compositions combine fresh contemporaneity with a profound, native knowledge of Argentine musical traditions and a compelling brand of refined swing.

Making his UK debut, Barozzi is joined by special guest, pre-eminent Cuban flautist, José Zalba-Smith with an eclectic programme exploring the many facets of the Argentine guitar, including a rare opportunity to hear an especially authentic rendition of Astor Piazzollas Histoire du tango.
