VALENTINES MILONGA

​Artistic Directorand“virtuoso extraordinaire,”Leonardo Suarez Paz, creates across cultures and genres, continuing a family legacy of over 100 years in the genre, beginning with Gabino Ezeiza to Fernando Suarez Paz who was instrumental in creating the Nuevo Tango alongside Piazzolla, the Argentine-born and New York raised composer whose centennial we are celebrating.  Following in the footsteps of his mentors Astor Piazzolla and Horacio Ferrer, Leonardo“shows us how easily we can communicate across cultures if the desire and effort are there.”(Wynton Marsalis, Artistic Director Jazz at Lincoln Center)Directors Leonardo & Olga Suarez Paz are currently the Dean's Artists-In-Residence at NYU.PIAZZOLLA  100is unprecedented in format and takes place in New York City  a city of great importance for Tango from Carlos Gardel in the 1930s to Astor Piazzolla.  Throughout the year of Piazzolla's centennial, we offered diverse programs including a chamber music program, multidisciplinary shows, art exhibits,  film screenings, a literary night, and a series of master classes and lectures, bringing together top artists from all disciplines who form a part of the genre's renewal and highlights the importance of women in post Piazzolla Nuevo Tango.  We offer a touring format of PIAZZOLLA 100 worldwide "El Nuevo Tango"  which in 2022 took place at the "Sala Ballena Azul" at the Centro Cultural Kirchner in Buenos Aires, Argentina in March, closing the Piazzolla Centennial cycle. For us, this marks a new century of Tango and its evolution and we are thrilled to share the legacy, innovation, and creativity that this artistic language has to offer with as many audiences as possible.
