Greenwich Library’s Peterson Concert Series will host Cuartetango on Sunday, March 10 at 3:30 p.m., in the Cole Auditorium.

Leonardo Suárez Paz leads the Grammy-Award nominated Cuartetango string quartet to the forefront of 21st century Nuevo Tango, following in the footsteps of his mentor, the revolutionary composer Astor Piazzolla. Suarez Paz is a fourth generation Tango artist who brings forth a new vision of Argentina’s rich culture with an “ingenious musical concept,” (The Day, CT) – a classical string quartet, which taps into the authentic spirit of Tango.

Cuartetango has been featured in the Sala Grande of the Teatro Colon Opera House in Buenos Aires, the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts and The Metropolitan Museum in New York. Their 2012 album “Masters of Bandoneon” received a double nomination for Best Tango Album and Best Classical Contemporary Composition at the 13th Latin Grammy Awards.

The Peterson Concert Series is open to all at no charge. Two dancers will be appearing with Cuartetango during the performance. Doors open at 2:45. Registration, using the Library’s online calendar (greenwichlibrary.org), is required.
