The Romano Viazzani Ensemble brings together seven outstanding musicians from the worlds of classical, jazz and Latin-American music to play and create tango and tango-inspired music.

Based on the line up of Astor Piazzolla’s famous quintet they recreate music that ranges from Piazzolla’s own works to classic Argentine and European tango. They also arrange music in the style of tango and write their own original tango-inspired music with a twist of swinging London.

The London-based ensemble officially started in 2009 and have played in the UK and Italy and after a gap of a few years when Romano Viazzani was involved in other projects, were brought together for an event in 2017 which led to their official relaunch in March 2018.

Since then, the ensemble has gone from strength to strength culminating in its 2020 debut album London Tango.
