In January 2016 The Harborough Collective, directed by David Le Page, joined forces with renowned bandoeon player Eduardo García to record an album of his music and arrangements. Featuring David Le Page and Catherine Leech on violins, Vanessa McNaught on viola and Nick Stringfellow on cello the album will be released in the autumn followed by a small number of performances.
Eduardo García was born in Argentina in 1964. He studied the bandoneon in Buenos Aires under the most prestigious of maestros such as A. Barletta, D. Binelli and Rodolfo Mederos. In 1983, he founded the “Apertura” orchestra and recorded a CD, which was awarded several major prizes. Eduardo García has also performed with many other musicians and orchestras including Horacio Salgan, Orlando Tripodi, Jorge Sobral, Erlin Kroner and “Tango por dos”, and in many plays and radio and TV programmes. When Eduardo arrived in France in 1992, the famous director Alfredo Arias asked him to play in his show “Mortadela”, which was awarded the Molière best musical show award. Since then, Eduardo has performed as a soloist in France and overseas with many artists including Lio, Gustavo Beytelmann, Antonio Agri and Omar Espinoza, and recorded several CDs with other musicians such as Ombu, Luis Rizzo Quinteto, Jean-Paul Poletti, Santos Chilemi, François Beranger, Dimitra Galani and the Cuarteto Cedron.
