Heerenhuyskamerconcert - Trio Tango Extremo

The repertoire of Trio Tango Extremo is very broad and can be called very special in its style. Angles including European and South American folklore, classical music, jazz and Brazilian music are combined with 'tango nuevo'. In recent years, the group has specialized in music from the Argentinean Río de la Plata area and various crossovers from the tango nuevo idiom.

Nationally, the ensemble has managed to conquer a place in Dutch musical life that will no longer be easily ignored: they have played on practically all large and small concert stages in the Netherlands, ranging from jazz festivals to classical concert halls to tango salons.

But this trio has also been introduced to foreign countries many times, as evidenced by an impressive tour list in Spain, France, Portugal, Belgium, Italy, Mexico, the United Kingdom, Turkey, Kurdistan, Ireland, Croatia, Russia, China, South Africa, Botswana, Bolivia, Uruguay, South Korea, Greenland, Iceland, Germany, Switzerland, Aruba, Curaçao, Sint Maarten, Ecuador and Colombia.

Furthermore, Tango Extremo was the only non-Argentine orchestra to perform at the Buenos Aires Tango Festival in Argentina: the most prestigious tango festival in the world!

It should be clear: since its foundation in 2003, Tango Extremo has undergone a development that is remarkable to say the least. The group was founded by violinist Tanya Schaap, who has been the artistic driving force behind the group ever since.
