Quadro Nuevo is a premier German acoustic quartet that has spent nearly three decades redefining the boundaries of world-jazz and tango nuevo. D.
Lowka, and formerly Robert Wolf (later replaced). Their sound identity is built on a foundation of 'nostalgic-acoustic' music, characterized by the prominent use of accordion and woodwinds to create cinematic, travel-oriented soundscapes. They occupy a unique cultural position as European ambassadors of the tango, having received multiple German Jazz Awards and the European Phono Award.
