alturas was born in lima in 1978. since then, they
have worked seriously and professionally letting
the world Know peru through its traditional mu-
sic from the andes, the coast and the amazon, as well
as the most representative melodies which belong to
latin america, giving special emphasis to afro-peruvian
rhythms and very proudly showing on stage more than
30 different acoustic musical instruments.
Besides having performed all along peru, they have
given numerous concerts and have participated in vari-
ous festivals held in very prestigious venues in Germany,
austria, spain, France, england, italy, portugal, poland,
switzerland, the former ussr, israel, Morocco, colombia,
and have taken part in most of these countries officially
representing peru.
alturas, highly experienced in the authentic style of the
Misa criolla and making use of a fresh interpretation,
have managed to reach a very special version, which
they have sung in innumerable occasions at very impor-
tant european venues together with choirs of well-rec-
ognized international prestige. in July 2004, alturas had
the enormous privilege to present it together with the
tenor José carreras and the coral salvé de laredo at the
emilia romagna international Festival (italy).

Misa criolla
Written in 1963 by ariel ramirez, Misa criolla has be-
come one of the most wellknown and oft-performed
south american choral works throughout the world. a
product of the composer’s long study of argentine folk
music, the piece synthesizes popular and liturgical styles,
drawing on the rhythms and melodies of argentina and
other south american cultures.
entirely based on traditional rhythms (chacarera, car-
navalito, estilo pampeano), it is also one of the first mass-
es to be celebrated in a modern language - being con-
temporary to the second Vatican counc. ariel ramirez,
born in 1921, draws on the metres and rhythms of latin-
american music, and employs dance forms from argen-
tina, Bolivia and peru; it is music that is heartwarmingly
approachable, of a light, devotional kind. in trying to
characterize it i was reminded of parts of orff’s carmina
burana and Britten’s church parables, though here the
accompaniment to soloists and chorus is provided by
varying instrumental combinations including, besides
percussion, a guitar, five-string charango and various
other latin-american folk instruments.

without prejudices, have been built and have joined

Flamenco, as a human message
-which could be called wavering life
- has taken part in the entire histori-
cal legacy, from its primeval days, and it is
able to reborn in order to discover its own
antipodes.
light and darkness, illuminist challenge
of creation to meet the overflow of elec-
trotechnics. the noisy days conspire with
the mysterious solitude of the night. it
consists on a renewed profile which does
not lose its character: mourning and cel-
ebration. this will endure what mankind
will endure; ill as the triumphant but cor-
nered animal that we are.
let’s revive something which has been
printed in our hearts; but as surprising as
the passage of time and eternally mov-
ing. a song, the consequence of wanting
to know what we already know; it has to
be explained, again to find true enlight-
enment in the depths of darkness.

the music of egozcue, of argentine roots and in-
tensely emotional, conceived as chamber music,
with a strong fluent rhythmic development. Both
his classical training and the influence of jazz and con-
temporary music combine to give way to the passion
and the expressive power of music that is authentic,
truthful, overwhelming.
the courage, the performing truth taken to its logical
conclusion, holding nothing back while they express
themselves with their instruments, is what stimulates in
the listener this notion of profound reality from which,
undoubtedly, one comes out one’s indifference.

in august 2008, in a small nightclub, porteÑa tanGo
trÍo was born in a natural and almost improvised way,
due to the meeting between two argentine musicians
strolling through europe. the guitarist alejandro pic-
ciano and the pianist Federico peuvrel gradually consoli-
dated a solid tango trio that, from that small nocturnal
bar, now disappeared, called “la cueva del Bolero” was
projected in the last 10 years to the great theaters and
auditoriums of 20 countries in four continents convert-
ing that small casual meeting, into a great argentine
dance and music show away from clichés, with a current
and close sound that surprises an audience with which it
interacts, being today the company of tango argentino
with training stable with the largest audience in europe,
reaching more than 600 performances with their differ-
ent shows and recording all their albums and dVds un-
der the label Melopea discos with the production of an
icon of argentine music, the Grand litto nebbia..
after a long journey through the usual circuit of tango
and jazz clubs, at the beginning of 2011, they created
the show “un placer!” With which they toured theaters
throughout spain and portugal, filling in February 2012
the legendary calderón theater in Madrid in which they
record a live recorded album that becomes the kickoff of
their great international tours.
la porteÑa tanGoBased in Madrid since 2009 is the group with highest audience in europe with
more than 100 tango shows per year

towards the end of 2013, Matías picciano, a young
and virtuous of only 18 years old, joined the trio
with whom they recorded the following year
in argentina the cd “Buenos aires ... When i Far away i
saw”, which they presented at the teatro Gran Vía, with
the milestone of performing 9 functions and reposition-
ing the argentine tango after decades again in the great
theaters of the Gran vía Madrileña and incorporating
new countries to its extensive list as, israel, ireland, swit-
zerland, slovenia and a great summer tour by audiences
in the czech republic, a prolific stage that ends with a
dVd entitled “cádiz” recorded in the beautiful courtyard
of santa catalina castle in that city.
in 2015 litto nebbia and alejandro picciano have the
idea of paying homage to his admired Héctor “chupita”
stamponi, a great composer and pianist of the golden
decade of tango, on the occasion of the centenary of his
birth to be fulfilled in 2016.
they release their album “Que me van a hablar de amor!”
Which becomes the biggest success of the group’s ca-
reer. the show is presented in argentina in the fabulous
ccK auditorium of the city of Buenos aires with sold-
out tickets and then it is represented in large theaters
of europe together with the dance and choreography
of two young and multi-award-winning dancers, reach-
ing the almost 150 representations in the last two years.

tango crosses borders leaving the stamp of the past that
re-emerges transformed in beauty, passion and sensual-
ity. in this programme we will see the personal style of
each couple, revealing the choreographic complexity
of this “feeling that you can dance”. the intense work of
the dancers keep the audience directly connected with
the “porteño” (people from Buenos aires) feeling that it
arises from its scenes.
a must see show where we will live histories of jealousy,
nostalgia, love and hate that reflects the sensuality and
passion of Buenos aires.
the choreographies exclusively created for this specta-
cle, are extremely sensual. it express a full feeling of sen-
suality but not of sexuality, where the most important is
not only the great technique of the dancers but his ex-
pressiveness. everything is joined, looks, arms, hands, ev-
ery movement of the body accompanying the cadence
of the tango and transmit through what they are living: a
three minutes romance.
carlos & dévora are nowadays are one of the best argen-
tinean couple based in europe and are claimed in the
most prestigious tango festivals around the world.
