Description
Maria Volonte is one of the most celebrated singers of tango. On stage, her expressive voice, together with the intensity and sensuality of her performance, creates an artistic experience that has fascinated critics and audiences around the world.
Winner of the Gardel Prize and a Latin Grammy nominee, Maria takes tango to unexpected places, fusing the passionate roots of tango with jazz and bossa nova.
Taylor Johnson, CEO of T.H.E. Audio (who chose Maria as their World Endorsement Artist) said, "Maria Volonte has proven herself not only one of the world's foremost interpreters of the tango, but also a jazz vocal stylist who can deliver a depth of performance that can leave the listener speechless while opening new musical horizons."
Whether exploring tango with the eminent jazz pianist Horacio Larumbe, with prestigious Argentine musicians (Javier Malosetti, Walter Ros, Pascual Mamone, Facundo Bergalli, Csar Angeleri, Nestor Marconi, Oscar Giunta, Esteban Morgado, Dario Eskenazi, among others) or together with the Tangoloco tango-fusion quintet, Maria opens a fascinating window on her own musical world.
Besides her numerous shows in Argentina, Maria has performed in Europe, across Latin America and in the United States. In Munich, she sang the title role in the opera Maria of Buenos Aires, composed by Horacio Ferrer and Astor Piazzolla, under the direction of pianist and composer Gerardo Gandini. In Finland, her performance at the Helsinki Festival in 2005, ended with the audience on its feet, while in California together with pianist Larry Vuckovich, Maria played the famous jazz club Yoshis. Back in Buenos Aires, she has opened for Brad Mehldau.
Maria has released five albums. The first, Tango y Otras Pasiones (Tango and Other Passions, 1996) was chosen by the La Nacin newspaper as one of the top 100 tango recordings of all time. The second, Cornisas del Corazn (Edges of the Heart, 1999), was recorded live at the historic Tortoni Caf in Buenos Aires. Her third CD, Fuimos (We Were, 2003), a duo project with the legendary pianist Horacio Larumbe, won Mara the 2004 Gardel Prize and was nominated for a Latin Grammy. Her fourth CD, Tangos (2004), brought together a classic collection of tangos from her repertoire and was nominated for the 2005 Gardel Prize. Her fifth CD, Yo soy Maria (2006), explores the fusion of tango with jazz and bossa nova.
