About “Retazos Troileanos”

The work, rooted and minted in the heart of Buenos Aires, takes as its conceptual axis the work of Aníbal Troilo, emblematic composer of popular music from Buenos Aires. Aníbal Troilo's original work - or rather pieces of it - is taken as raw material for the construction of a new language. Indeed, it is not an arrangement or a potpourri. The work and the compositional figure of Aníbal Troilo thus acquire a new perspective. Carving in this way a language that goes beyond the sounds of the typical tango orchestra, and that at the same time resignifies and deepens the aesthetic experience of city music, highlighting, as a tribute, the figure of one of the most outstanding composers of Argentine popular music, Aníbal Troilo.
