From the revolutionary works of Astor Piazzolla to haunting zambas and original ballads, every performance is rich with emotion, artistry, and atmosphere.
Celebrated worldwide for his mesmerising voice, Alvarado brings a carefully chosen repertoire alive with intensity, warmth and elegance in a concert that promises to captivate audiences from beginning to end with his charismatic stage presence and mesmerising musical virtuosity.
His interpretations, whether singing with a full symphony orchestra, a jazz big band or with just his tenor voice and a guitar in front of a handful of people, have transcended language barriers and driven an illustrious two-decade globe-trotting career, awards and 11 album releases. In recognition of his significance as a cultural ambassador for Argentina, the National Academy of Tango officially declared him as a Maestro in 2019.

Limited seats, early booking advised.
