The JP Jofre Hard Tango Chamber Band is one of New York City’s hottest in-demand ensembles. Started in 2008 by bandoneonist/composer JP Jofre, it focuses on his own works, as well as authentic interpretations of legendary composers such as Astor Piazzolla.  Argentinian expatriate JP Jofre, highlighted several times by the New York Times, and praised by Lincoln Center, who called him "one of today’s leading artists,” has seen his reputation grow by leaps and bounds. Starting with his quintet’s debut performance at Joe’s Pub in 2008, JP has been invited to appear at many of the most prestigious concert series in the United States and abroad.  In recent years, his quintet has appeared at Great Performers at Lincoln Center, Celebrities Series of Boston, Seattle Town Hall among many others.  Recently, the band has welcomed four outstanding performers to its ranks.  Violinist Eric Silberger, prizewinner at the Tchaikovsky Competition, cellist Amy Kang, Double Bassist Chris Johnson bass of the New York City Ballet Orchestra, and Argentinian pianist Pablo Cafici.  For their debut album, the ensemble had the great privilege of appearing with 14 time grammy winner Paguito D’Rivera, and in 2014 the ensemble had the honor to perform several times with world renowned pianist Kathryn Stott.
