Pablo Ziegler New Tango Trio

PORTLAND — Portland Ovations will present the Pablo Ziegler Trio for Nuevo Tango performing interpretation of Argentinean Tango music at 7:30 p.m. Thursday, March 28 at Hannaford Hall, University of Southern Maine Portland.

Born in Argentina, Ziegler started playing piano with jazz groups at age 14 and solo concerts at age 18 and then went on to be the pianist for Astor Piazzolla’s quintet for over 10 years. Since then he has taken the classical tango form to new levels with his jazz-influenced improvisation and percussive, yet lyrical use of piano.

Ziegler is an artist who inspires awe and devotion whenever he performs and has won both a Grammy and Latin Grammy Award. For the March 28 performance, Ziegler will be joined by guitarist Claudio Ragazzi, and bandoneon player Hector del Curto.

Tickets are $33 for Ovations members, $36 for the general public and a limited amount of $10 student tickets are also available. To purchase tickets, visit www.portlandovations.org, call PortTix at 207-842-0800 or visit the box office window at Merrill Auditorium, 20 Myrtle Street.
