Rodolfo Mederos is a bandoneonist, a composer with an enormous oeuvre, one of the authorities on the tango – and an inspiration to new generations of musicians. Born in Buenos Aires and still living there, the city has always been his muse: ''I am a product of my city Buenos Aires, a product of every single alley and corner…''. And this is apparent every time Mederos plays the bandoneon, be it fronting one of his many ensembles or as a soloist. The sounds of his bandoneon are like musical images of life, like a journey through the corners and times of his native city.
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. Rodolfo is now 65 and at the prime of his career. His struggle for the tango – the lonely campaign of a man and his bandoneon – continues.
