The ensemble consists of international stars Isabelle van Kuelen (violin) Christian Gerber (bandoneon), Ruediger Ludwig (double bass) and Ulrike Payer (piano), all of them equally outstanding virtuoso musicians that play together as one.
 
Accordionist/composer Douglas Ward was on a cruise in October 2015. He says that he has "never heard a bandoneon player as brilliant and as emotionally expressive as Christian Gerber since meeting and listening to Astor Piazzolla himself, in New York many years ago. The technical virtuosity and musical interpretation of this ensemble is simply the best."

The ensemble released a CD entitled ‘Grand Tango’ in June 2015 which can be found on the ensemble’s website and the internet.

Gervasio MarcosignoriThe Accordions Worldwide news for the week ending October 26th 2001 included a report of Italian virtuoso Gervasio Marcosignori performing in a shopping mall in Shanghai, China.

Marcosignori was born in Castelfidardo, Italy and by the age of 15 was already giving concert tours around Europe. After a performance at the British Royal Celebration Hall, the press called him the "Accordion Poet".

During this month's trip to Shanghai, he was accompanied by the Italian Marche Region Council Delegation. His performance included pieces played on the MIDI accordion such as ‘Flight of the Bumble Bee’ and ‘Dark Eyes’. Shanghai's major newspaper ‘Xinming Evening’, the ‘Jiefang Daily’ and Shanghai TV reported this performance.
