Founded in 2006 at the Faculty of Arts of the University of Chile, Alevare was created as a space for the exploration and performance of tango music. The ensemble began by interpreting works by iconic tango figures such as Osvaldo Pugliese, Aníbal Troilo, and Astor Piazzolla, blending traditional arrangements with their own original compositions. Over time, the group developed a distinct artistic identity and stage presence.
For over a decade, Alevare has been intensely active within the Chilean music scene. A key milestone came in 2007 with their participation in the 7th World Tango Summit in Valparaíso. In 2009, they released their debut album, Caleta de Tango, which premiered at the Matucana 100 Theater to critical and public acclaim.
In 2012, they recorded a live performance at the Espacio Matta Cultural Center, which became the basis for their 2013 release Alevare. Live!, launched at the Sala Master of the University of Chile. They closed that year with a concert at the Baquedano Theater as part of the Popular Music Season presented by the University’s Center for Artistic and Cultural Extension.
Through their work, Alevare has emerged as a driving force in the tango revival Chile has experienced in recent years.
