Trio Milongero was formed in 2024 by three distinguished Cypriot musicians: Nicos Ioannou – principal double bass of the CySO, guitarist Vasileios Avraam and accordionist Fotis Mousoulidis. Globally, it is perhaps the second ensemble with this combination of instruments, which makes it unique and fascinating in terms of the timbres mixture.
The Trio will present works by the Argentinian composer Máximo Diego Pujol, in which he combines traditional tango with classical and contemporary elements. Influenced by Astor Piazzolla, his music is characterized by strong melodies, tempo and rhythm alternations, and a particularly expressive use of the guitar and the bandoneon (accordion), thus conveying the passion and melancholy of the Argentinian tango.
Pujol’s works also incorporate elements of the milonga and the waltz, whilst maintaining the dance and narrative character of the music of Buenos Aires.
Trio Milonguero’s programme features stunning pieces such as ‘Gris de madrugada’, ‘Maria Rosario’, ‘Tangazo a medianoche’ and ‘Estacion Retiro’, among others.
