Milonga Night with Bandonegro

This exceptional tango orchestra will take you on a musical journey through traditional Argentine tango, tango nuevo, and their own innovative compositions infused with elements of jazz.

About Bandonegro: Formed in 2010 in Poznań, Poland, Bandonegro consists of four versatile musicians: Michał Główka (bandoneon/accordion), Jakub Czechowicz (violin), Marcin Antkowiak (double bass), and Marek Dolecki (piano). These talented artists are dedicated to showcasing the diverse facets of tango, bringing its beauty closer to audiences worldwide.

Achievements and Performances: Bandonegro quickly gained recognition by winning the "Tango Nuevo" category at the international “PIF Castelfidardo” competition in Italy at the age of 18. Since then, they have performed in over 30 countries on 4 continents, including prestigious venues such as the Schleswig Holstein Music Festival in Germany, the Copenhagen Jazz Festival in Denmark, and the Buenos Aires Tango World Cup in Argentina.

Collaborations and Recordings: The ensemble has collaborated with renowned Latin American artists and producers and has released five critically acclaimed albums. Their original album “Hola Astor” was hailed as a revolution in the genre, blending tango with elements of jazz and rock. Their latest album, set to release in early 2025, features original music recorded in Buenos Aires with guest appearances by world-class Argentine jazz musicians.
