About the CD “When I asked Hector Del Curto about the precious cello sound on his new CD, he told me it is his wife: “I have a good ear for women,” he commented with his fine sense of humor. A good ear is not his only qulity; he also has exquisite taste and the perfect balance between precision and delicacy of the chamber music and the passion and expressive power of the popular music of his native Argentina”. – Paquito D’Rivera
About Hector Del Curto
Born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, bandoneon player Hector Del Curto has traveled the world both as soloist and chamber musician, having shared the stage with Astor Piazzolla, Osvaldo Pugliese, Paquito D´Rivera, Julio Bocca, National Symphony Orchestra and Buenos Aires Symphony Orchestra, among many others. In April 1999 he appeared in Carnegie Hall with the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra, joined by world-renowned artists Gary Burton, Joe Lovano, Pablo Ziegler. The New York Times highlighted his "wistful, piercing solos on the bandoneon."
Mr. Del Curto appears on recordings with Osvaldo Pugliese and Astor Piazzolla on Finally Together, Pablo Ziegler on Asphalt (BMG), Tango Magic (Sony Music), and Quintet for the New Tango (BMG). Also he appears as a guest musician in numerous recordings like the Grammy Award-winning Master Pieces with Tito Puente and The Lost Days (BMG) with renowned mezzo-soprano, Denyce Graves.
Mr. Del Curto won the competition "Best Bandoneon Player Under 25" when only 17 years old. This award led the tango legend, Osvaldo Pugliese to invite him to play in his orchestra, which made him the youngest bandoneonist in the history of Pugliese's Orchestra.
Recently, the Italian-American Network awarded him the Golden Note Award in recognition of his artistic achievements. As a conductor he directed the show Forever Tango on Broadway and he leads the Eternal Tango Orchestra which he founded in 2003.
