Máximo Diego Pujol - Avenida Centenario

Avenida Centenario, 3rd movement from "Tres Piezas de Otoño" suite for 2 guitars by Agrentinian guitarist and composer Máximo Diego Pujol performed by German guitar duo Kristjan Tamm and Roman Hernitscheck. Both guitarists are currently in the Master's program at the University of Music Karlsruhe. In addition to extensive solo and chamber music concerts they are also teachers at the music school Kandel.

As a young boy, Máximo Diego Pujol took lessons from Don Gaspar Navarro, his father’s patient, neighbor, and friend. Yes, his father was a dentist, but he also used to be professional tango singer in his youth. Later Máximo went on to study with Alfredo Vicente Gascón in a study group led by Abel Carlevaro, classical gutar virtuoso performer, classical guitar , composer and teacher from Uruguay. Upon graduating from secondary school, after several years of studying mathematics and guitar Máximo made his life decision. While studying at the Buenos Aires Conservatory of Music “Juan José Castro”, Máximo also took private classes on harmony and composition with Leonídas Arnedo. As a performer Máximo made his fame by playing tango and milongas at Buenos Aires night clubs, both as a soloist and as an accompanist. He also played in a number of duos, trios and quartets, immersing himself fully in every aspect of tango music. As a composer, Pujol has strived for an ever-closer fusion of traditional Argentine Tango and formal academic concepts of classical guitar.
Today his compositions are performed and recorded throughout the world
