Hernan Gallegos
About
I am a tango pianist, composer and arranger. I graduated from UNSAM (Universidad Nacional de San Martín) in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
As a professional musician, I have performed in the most important theatres in Argentina, such as the CCK, Usina del Arte, Academia Nacional del tango, and Casa del tango. I have played as a soloist, and also with numerous orchestras, and chamber groups such as duos, trio, quartets and quintets.
I perform as a tango pianist around the word at MSC cruises, and also with my tango trio at Buenos Aires.
As a teacher, I work at the University of San Martin (UNSAM), in the orchestra of Esteban Echeverría's council, and at my studio in Buenos Aires.
My piano transcriptions and performance of the Carlos García and Marinero Montes duets have won the “Activar Patrimonio” National award. Such reinterpretation of this music was recorded with argentinian bandoneonist Jorge Sequeira, in audio and video at the CCK´s hall of honor during 2021.
