Bandoneonist, composer and arranger Rodolfo Mederos is a natural musician in every sense of the word.
His forceful personality has produced a profound effect on tango, developing a style fraught with popular essence and emotion, and drawing from every single note he strikes a myriad of deep roots and good taste.
He has never conceived tango to be a mere local expression, unlike other genres of folk compositions. Born in the Río de la Plata and imbued with central European traits, tango embodies the feelings of urban dwellers. In other words, tango is not solely inherent to the city of Buenos Aires, but to other cities of the world as well.
As a composer, Rodolfo Mederos covers the gamut from popular to symphonic pieces for different instrumental groups. As a performer, he expresses deep-felt musicality. In addition, it is worth mentioning that he has also carved out a career as a teacher and writer of both bandoneon-related matters as well as tango composition and orchestration.
