Cuarteto Hermanos Cordoba - Cuarteto Hermanos Cordoba

Review by Sandrine Pelissier

The Cuarteto Hermanos Cordoba is a group of four brothers who hail from Argentina and are known for their exceptional talent in playing the traditional music of their country. Their self-titled album, Cuarteto Hermanos Cordoba, is a testament to their musical prowess and their deep understanding of the genre.

The album features a collection of songs that showcase the brothers' virtuosity on their respective instruments - the bandoneon, guitar, double bass, and violin. The arrangements are intricate and dynamic, with each musician taking turns to lead the melody and add their unique touch to the music.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "La Cumparsita," a classic tango that has been covered by many artists over the years. The Cuarteto Hermanos Cordoba's version is a fresh take on the song, with a lively tempo and a playful energy that captures the essence of Argentine tango.

Another highlight of the album is "El Choclo," a piece that is often played at milongas (tango social dances). The brothers' rendition of the song is both emotive and rhythmic, with the bandoneon and violin trading melodic lines and the guitar and double bass providing a solid foundation.

Summary by Sandrine Pelissier

the Cuarteto Hermanos Cordoba's self-titled album is a must-listen for anyone who appreciates traditional Argentine music. The brothers' skillful playing and their passion for the genre shine through in every track, making this a truly memorable album.
