Pedro Giraudo
ABOUT THE ARTISTS
Back by popular demand after their electrifying 2023 performance, the Pedro Giraudo Tango Quartet returns to the North Carolina Museum of Art to once again captivate audiences with their unique fusion of tradition and innovation. Led by Latin GRAMMY Award-winning bassist, composer, and arranger Pedro Giraudo, this ensemble redefines tango by seamlessly blending its rich heritage with elements of jazz and classical music, creating a sound that is both timeless and contemporary.
Giraudo, a native of Córdoba, Argentina, has been a pivotal figure in the evolution of tango, bringing fresh perspectives to the genre while honoring its deep-rooted traditions. His collaborations with luminaries such as Rubén Blades, Paquito D’Rivera, and the New York Philharmonic underscore his versatility and commitment to musical excellence.
A dynamic force on the international music scene, Pedro Giraudo has carved out a singular path as both a performer and composer. His works have been commissioned and performed by top-tier ensembles including the Juilliard Jazz Orchestra and Arturo O’Farrill’s Afro Latin Jazz Orchestra, where he served as musical director and bassist for over a decade. Giraudo’s original compositions are known for their cinematic scope, emotional intensity, and rhythmic complexity—reflecting a deep knowledge of tango, folklore, and classical traditions. His ability to orchestrate music with both sweeping grandeur and intimate detail has made him a standout voice in contemporary tango and a compelling storyteller through sound.
