Orchestra:
Sexteto Típico di Alfredo Marcucci
The Orquesta Típica de Alfredo Marcucci, located
in Turin, is the first and unique “grand orchestra” of traditional Argentinian tango established in Italy.
The orchestra consists of twenty musicians nationally
selected by the Argentinian Master Alfredo Marcucci.
Prestigious instrumentalist and arranger, Alfredo
Marcucci is a living icon of tango.
He started playing bandoneón when he was only
seven and has made a fabulous career for more than
60 years, during which he got acquainted with some
of the brightest stars of the tango scene. Since the
end of the 40s til the end of the 50s he played in
some very popular orchestras, like Julio De Caro,
Juan Canaro, Enrique Mario Francini, Carlos Di Sarli
- Argentinian tango legendary names. For the following
15 years he played with the popular folk band Los
Paraguayos.
At the Apulia Tango Festival the orchestra will introduce
itself - for the first time - as Sexteto Típico
di Alfredo Marcucci, in the authentic typical style
born in Buenos Aires during the 20s (orquesta tipica).
In the last three years the orchestra has been performing
all around Italy, both in live concerts and milongas,
in collaboration with great artists such as Horacio
Ferrer e Luis Stazo.
