    • Rodolfo Mederos is a bandoneonist, a composer with an enormous oeuvre, one of the authorities on the tango – and an inspiration to new generations of musicians. Born in Buenos Aires and still living there, the city has always been his muse: “I am a product of my city Buenos Aires, a product of every single alley and corner....” And this is apparent every time Mederos plays the bandoneon, be it fronting one of his many ensembles or as a soloist, just the man and his instrument. The sounds of his bandoneon are like musical images of life, like a journey through the corners and times of his native city.

    • The artist Rodolfo Mederos thrives on his city. Floating above Buenos Aires like an angel, his playing captures the essence of a gigantic city that never sleeps and only finds moments of rest in Mederos’s music. His music is an inseparable part of the city and reflects its modernism and intensity

      Mederos is a child of the modern age, yet constantly aware of his roots. Hundreds of tourists come to Buenos Aires to explore the tango – a genre that has long spread all over the world. Rodolfo is now 65 and at the prime of his career. His struggle for the tango – the lonely campaign of a man and his bandoneon – continues. The future remains uncertain; the only road open is straight ahead. The audience – today’s and tomorrow’s – is already waiting
