‘Coamorous’ in Tango Concert, Seoul - South Koreaby Rob Howard |
‘Coamorous’ is a group of four international musicians who came together by chance in Seoul, South Korea, and found they all had a passion for a kind of Tango not typically presented to Korean audiences. This group performs throughout Korea works of a level such as Astor Piazzolla, in an effort to introduce a higher level of Tango to as many people as possible - one that is as important as Beethoven's ‘Fifth Symphony’ is to Classical music and Wagner's ‘Tristan and Isolde’ is to Opera. The kind of Tango they hope to introduce is one of soulful expression, intricately woven melodies, and sonorous harmonies. The members of ‘Coamorous’ are Alexander Sheykin (accordion), Anna Fedotova (violin), Andrey Vinichenko (piano) and Garan Fitzgerald (double bass). Having trained internationally in various styles of music during the course of their lives, the group currently resides in Seoul and performs in various halls and performance spaces throughout South Korea. In 2009 ‘Coamorous’ won the 1st Prize at the 10th Osaka International Music Competition, Japan. ‘Coamorous’ next perform in concert at Spazio Luce, a beautiful new performing arts venue in the heart of Seoul on December 6th, at 8pm.
