The Deco Ensemble has been praised as an 'exceptional ensemble of the highest calibre with a strong and highly individual voice’. Their adventurous programming and virtuoso performances display extraordinary breadth and creativity. They combine classical, jazz, and world music influences to re-imagine the sound of Nuevo Tango. They released their debut album ‘Encuentro’ in 2015, to critical acclaim, and have toured extensively across Europe. Highlights from this season included sell-out performances at the Warsaw Philharmonic Hall, the Salle Cortot in Paris, the Palazzo Brancaccio in Rome, the Royal Albert Hall, the Purcell Room, Wigmore Hall, Colton Hall and the European Parliament in Brussels.

"A strong and highly individual voice" - Owen Murray, Royal Academy of Music
"Enthusiastic, engaged, virtuosic" - Frédéric Devreese, legendary Belgian contemporary-classical composer
