The sounds of his bandoneon are like musical images of life, like a journey through the corners and times of his native city. The artist Rodolfo Mederos thrives in his city. Floating above Buenos Aires like an angel, his playing captures the essence of a gigantic city that never sleeps and only finds moments of rest in Mederos’s music. His music is an inseparable part of the city and reflects its modernism and intensity.

Mederos is a child of the modern age, yet constantly aware of his roots. Hundreds of tourists come to Buenos Aires to explore the tango – a genre that has long spread all over the world. His struggle for the tango –the lonely campaign of a man and his bandoneon – continues. The future remains uncertain; the only road open is straight ahead. The audience – today’s and tomorrow’s – is already waiting.
