Around 1915, a year before La Cumparsita premiered, Buenos Aires saw this marvelous place take shape: the art nouveau basement of Galería General Güemes, three thousand square meters now dedicated to tango and the city's arts.

The building that houses it marked a stage in the growth of Buenos Aires. For a long time it was the highest point in the country. The beacon lit in its dome at 87 meters high served as a reference for the vessels of the Río de la Plata. Its architect, the Italian Francisco Gianotti, used the most luxurious materials of the era to build this palace that still amazes us.

Astor Piazzolla Theatre — Like some of the world's most important variety halls, the Astor Piazzolla Theatre is also a restaurant. This allows spectator-diners to enjoy international cuisine paired with fine wines and then watch the evening show. From the old boxes it is possible to watch, almost privately, a show that brings together great tango figures.

Frequently asked questions

Is Piazzolla tango?
Yes, Astor Piazzolla is tango, but not traditional tango. His work gave rise to nuevo tango, a style that revolutionized the genre by incorporating elements of jazz and contemporary classical music. He kept tango as a foundation —in rhythm, spirit and Buenos Aires roots— but broke with its more conservative structures, creating compositions intended both for dancing and for listening in concert halls.
How much does a tango show in Buenos Aires cost?
Prices vary depending on the venue and the package chosen (show only, with dinner, VIP), with options from around USD $22 for a show only up to more than USD $100 for VIP dinners. In Argentine pesos the value will vary according to the daily exchange rate.
What is Piazzolla's most famous tango?
Libertango is undoubtedly Astor Piazzolla's most famous and recognized work worldwide. Composed in 1974, it symbolizes his definitive break with traditional tango and his search for creative freedom. It has been performed and covered by musicians of multiple genres and is one of the most performed Argentine compositions on international stages.
What are Astor Piazzolla's most important works?
Among his most important works are Adiós Nonino, one of his most emotional and personal compositions; Libertango, emblem of nuevo tango; Balada para un loco, with lyrics by Horacio Ferrer; Oblivion, of a melancholic and cinematic tone; and Las cuatro estaciones porteñas, which musically portray Buenos Aires throughout the year. These works consolidated his legacy as one of the most influential Argentine composers of the 20th century.
