INTRODUCTION
The quintet, as an instrumental group format, is nowadays a "classic" one in the development of the musical history of Tango. It is plenty enough to mention the "Quinteto Real" of Horacio Salgán, Astor Piazzolla's "Quinteto Nuevo Tango", "Pedro Laurenz Quinteto", "Rodolfo Mederos Quinteto", etc.
The Quinteto Típico Buenos Aires was formed at the beginning of 2000. Its members are: Luis Sava (violin), Alejo Caramés (electric guitar and arrangements), Juan Pablo Navarro (contrabass), Javier Sánchez (bandoneon) and Norberto Vogel (piano and arrangements).
The repertoire performed by the quintet includes classical Tango pieces that read over the whole Tango epochs. In it we can find instrumental and vocal pages that represents both the beginnings of the genus and also the most ultimate exposures of it: "La cumparsita", "El día que me quieras", "Caminito", "El motivo", "El pañuelito", "El Choclo", "A Don Agustín Bardi", "Invierno Porteño", "Canaro en París", "Adiós nonino", "Quejas de bandoneón", among others.
These pieces have, of course, stamped the seal of the musical style of the Quinteto Típico Buenos Aires. Within the arrangements one can perceive with straight clearness the characteristic music elements of Tango, left untouched, in spite of it's present-like and renewed sound. Some of the pieces are faithful adaptations of the original composers' versions, and others were specially created for the quintet by its arrangers, respecting its original melodies and recreating both harmony and rhythm without loosing at all the spirit and essence of Tango.
Nowadays, the Quinteto Típico Buenos Aires is presenting it's first CD "Tangos clásicos" at Café Tortoni every friday at 23:00 p.m., the CD includes a prologue written by two great Tango Masters such as Leopoldo Federico and Horacio Malvicino.
