Tangonero Sextet is a combined effort of the San Francisco band Tangonero joined by the fellow guest players from the Stowe Tango Orcherstra: Yukie Kawanami (bandoneon) and Keiko Cadby (violin). Yukie, Keiko, and the band leader of Tangonero, Alex Roitman, are all active members of the Stowe Tango Music Festival Orchestra. They have shared stage with legendary tango musicians such as Victor Lavallen, Horacio Cabarcos, Pablo Estigarribia, Jose Colangelo, Pablo Agri, Nicolas Ledesma, Humberto Ridolfi, Julio Pane, Pablo Ziegler, as well as the members of Hector Del Curto's quintet.
Yukie Kawanami (bandoneon) is the 1st prize winner of the Che Bandoneon International Competition 2015, performing in Japan and internationally. This is her second visit to the Bay Area, after a great debut in the Fall of 2018. She performs in Japan and internationally. This time she's coming to San Francisco after playing at the El Tango show in Miami and ABQ festival in Albuquerque.
Keiko Cadby has been performing Tango for the last 10 years, and joined the Southern California-based 'Los Angeles del Tango' ensemble in 2011. Over the last 20 years, Keiko has played in venues worldwide, including Carnegie Hall in NY, and several locations in Japan, France, Argentina, England, Scotland, Italy, and Czech Republic; as well as in some of the largest concert halls/stadiums on the West Coast (ARCO Arena in Sacramento, Cricket Wireless in Chula Vista, HP Pavilion in San Jose, Honda Center in Anaheim, MGM in Vegas, and many others), and TV, commercials, film soundtracks, and live radio (NPR). She has performed, toured, and recorded with artists such as Jeffrey Kahane, Marco Antonio Solis, Joan Sebastian, and Alejandro Fernandez, and Hauschka; originally from the Northbay, she won local awards as a young student, including the Mary Paige Phillips Award and the Command Performance Award from California Music Educator's Association of the Bay Area, and placed first in competitions including the Yen Liang Young Artist Competition in Walnut Creek, the Ruth Finley Person Etude Music Club and Santa Rosa Youth Orchestra Concerto Competitions throughout Northern California. She has been invited to work and learn with artists such as Pinchas Zuckerman, two-time GRAMMY®-nominee Philip Quint, and GRAMMY®-nominee Fabio Zini.
Born and raised in Buenos Aires, Argentina, Claudio Ortega formed his own tango group, Trío Corazon al Sur and began singing for audiences around the San Francisco Bay Area in 2005. He performed with a variety of musical groups including Tangonero Orchestra, Hugo Wainzinger Trío, and Trío Garufa. His venues include the Argentine Tango USA Championship in San Francisco, Los Angeles Ford Amphitheater, Pacífica Concert Hall, The Mountain View Center for the Performance Arts and numerous milongas in the San Francisco Bay Area. Claudio recorded Sombras, his first romantic music CD as a soloist in 2012, and a few other tango CD's with Tangonero Orchestra and Trío Corazon al Sur. He is well known for his silky voice, which brings to the audiences the intensity and passion of the tango music with each song and in each phrase.
