The female vocal quartet Floras Negras, formed by Cecilia Bonardi, Laura Esses, Alejandra Cañoni and Laura Hatton, presents its latest album ‘Maldito Tango’. The quartet plays arrangements by Oscar Laiguera and Diego Vila, and is accompanied by Raúl Kiokio on guitar. They re-create a repertoire which ranges from the most traditional songs and melodies to current urban music of tangos, waltzes, milongas and candombes, intertwined by brushstrokes of texts, humor and scenic originality. They play compositions by Ángel Villoldo, Astor Piazzolla, Discépolo, Manzi, Ferrer, Hugo Varela, and others: “Che, bandoneón”, “Libertango”, “Oro y Plata”, “Milonga de la Anunciación” and “Gota de lluvia” are some of them. Since 1996 they began developing their show on several stages in Buenos Aires and the rest of Argentina, while also carrying their sound internationally to Uruguay, Portugal, Spain, the Netherlands and France. Thus they arrive in the city of Brussels on their European tour, after performing at the Granada International Tango Festival, then in Sevilla and Paris. Their tour will end at the end of March in Berlin. They proudly cherish the words of Horacio Ferrer about them: he defined Flores Negras as "one of the most refined groups of current tango".
