Present in a great number of concerts in Canada and overseas, the Ensemble has distinguished itself by the originality and the sensibility of its repertoire, imposing itself as one of the new cornerstones of the Nuevo Tango. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Victor Simon’s cultural roots nurture his univers; they emphasize it and put into prespective. His music is much more than a mere updated fusion or jazzy way through southern and Latin American rhythms. Because he does not confuse newness with novelty, he has been able to face the challenge of penetrating into the music of the present, without neglecting the connection that unites him with imaginary hemisphere. Thus emerges, with a renewing passion, a world full of surprises, open to all senses, and at the same time, deeply respectfull of its origins.

Throughout the last years, numerous quality shows were presented to the Montreal tango lovers. But we must wait until the spring 2000 to get a superproduction of tango under the artistic direction of Wouter Brave from Amsterdam. It brings together on the same stage famous dancers and musicians of the moment with local artists to produce the show «TANGO TANGO». The musical content was unquestionably one of the highlights of this amazing show. The classics of the repertoire are presented, but also original compositions from Victor Simon, with the sound quality of live performance: | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
