Quetango Quartet

The terrace of the Esplande is one of those truly magical spots in town where the scenery and setting become an intricate part of the whole experience. And don’t forget the world class music. This year, the tradition of Gypsy Jazz takes a subtle turn into contemporary tango! And on the unique scale, this year’s ensemble is up there!

This Quebec City group is made up of Daneil Finzi on cello, Jonathan Hains on guitar, Frederic Vermette on bass and Simon Boudreault on percussion.

Quetango is the first and only Canadian group to have performed at the Festival Y Mundial de Tango of Buenos Aires. Their original compositions cross all sorts of musical boundaries and takes the listener to a wonderful intersection of tango, jazz, progressive and chamber music.

Their first album Postango was nominated for Instrumental Album of the year at ADISQ. They produced a live concert for Bravo Canada television. They have also been recorded and broadcast on CBC Radio2. Musica Urbana, their second album was released on February 18, 2013.

Bring an umbrella or a parasol if you’d like a little shade. The Esplanade Studio Theatre serves as a back-up.
