| Video: Public Television News report on bandoneonist Juan José Mosalini. Juan José Mosalini (picture above), born on November 29th, 1943 in Buenos Aires, Argentina died on May 28th, 2022. Mosalini, who comes from a musical family, began learning the bandoneon as an autodidact at the age of eight. At thirteen he began playing in dance halls, and at the age of seventeen he became a professional musician. In 1961 he won first prize in the Canal 13 music competition Nace una estrella, and began his career in renowned Argentine tango orchestras, with Leopoldo Federico and Osvaldo Pugliese. He also worked with Susana Rinaldi and with Astor Piazzolla and founded the avant-garde ensemble Guardia Nueva with Daniel Binelli. In 1977, like many other artists and intellectuals, he left his home country because of the military dictatorship that had ruled since 1976 and went into exile in Paris. There he founded a trio with the pianist Gustavo Beytelmann and the bassist Patrice Caratini at the beginning of the 1980s, which modernised traditional tangos in a new arrangement with jazz elements as a variant of Tango Nuevo. In the following years, he devoted himself to the further development of bandoneon music as well as to the composition of film music and chamber music and orchestral works. As a soloist, he has played with numerous renowned symphony and chamber orchestras, such as the Ensemble Modern, with whom he appeared at the Schleswig-Holstein Music Festival in 2002. He toured with Juraj Galan and Norbert Dömling in the Jazz Meets Tango project. He also founded the Gran Orquesta de Tango, a large formation with which he reworks the history of tango. He was also involved in productions by Irmin Schmidt and Jean-Pierre Mas. In 1986 he opened a bandoneon school. In the early 1990s he received a professorship for bandoneon at the National Conservatory of Gennevilliers, where he had already been giving courses since 1989. Mosalini played the final scene of the Swiss feature film Der Verdingbub in 2011. His son Juanjo Mosalini also performs as a bandoneonist. |
