I came to the bandoneon through tango, and that music still feels like home to me. But I’ve always wondered where the instrument might take me next.
I’ve performed classical and contemporary music on it, and explored incorporating it into progressive metal and fusion with Middle Eastern music.
I like staying close to the bandoneon’s heritage while continuing to discover what else it can do.
That sense of discovery is what keeps me playing.
