The passion and nostalgia of tango, interpreted as only Argentinian porteños can. This music will carry you to a mysterious Buenos Aires which will embrace you in an amazing love affair that will last forever in your memory.

While the universal language of a melancholic and sensual voice evokes and stirs us, a sadness that acknowledges the passing of time, the pleasure of embracing one another leaving you feeling alive in the old and present Buenos Aires with its tales and secrecies. 

Tango is an emotion, a song of the heart as much as the body, as such it requires to be open to the intricacies of an intimate dialogue. Much like the stuff that good relationships are made of.

Silvia and Alberto were born and bred in Buenos Aires, Argentina, sharing their passion for music and life. 

Alberto is an accomplished guitarist from a lineage of guitarist who was involved in tango from a very early age, studied classical guitar and joined the Buenos Aires tango circuit as guitarist with his father playing together for well-known groups and solo tango singers. 

Silvia has been involved as a vocalist with different Argentinian quartets and choirs and is at present member of “The Philharmonia Choir of Cape Town” with years of signing experience in different fields.
