Arriving in France in the ’90s, Argentine composer and pianist Gerardo Jerez Le Cam has seven albums under his belt, and collaborations including Gotan Project, Juan Jose Mosalini and Osvaldo Calo, among others. While remaining faithful to the modern tango, the master of which remains the late Astor Piazzolla, Le Cam (also) strives to integrate traditional classical music, modern jazz, and also gypsy music from Eastern Europe, even some traditional African music. That being said, the Argentine leader generally remains in the territory of tango nuevo, where he continues the work of his contemporaries and predecessors.
