Biography
Eduardo Makaroff (born 4 April 1954) is an Argentine musician, songwriter and producer. He is best known as one of the founders of Gotan Project, which has brought together the broad universe of tango with electronic music. He is currently a founding and active member of Plaza Francia Orchestra and Müller & Makaroff, both with long time collaborator Christoph H. Müller. Eduardo Makaroff was born in Buenos Aires in 1954. His first group was founded with his brother, Sergio, in the 1970s: Los hermanos Makaroff which also included their sister, Miranda. Then, in the 1980s, he founded the duo "Edu y el Pollo" with Daniel Mactas. It was in 1990 that Makaroff arrived in Paris to begin his French career. Upon his arrival in Paris, Makaroff formed the group Mano a Mano, with which he produced Tango Joyeux, an album that received a very warm welcome in France and throughout Europe. He later became the conductor of a famous Parisian tango club, La Coupole, and also toured Europe with his group Tango Mano, while continuing to compose and produce music for the audiovisual industry. In 1999, Makaroff teamed up with Christoph H. Müller and Philippe Cohen Solal to explore new musical routes and give a different direction to the traditional music of his home country, subsequently Gotan Project was born. Gotan Project's music has been released on many compilation albums and has been used in a large amount of feature films and TV series. Whilst in Paris, Makaroff met another Argentine, Gérard Lo Monaco, to whom he gave some tango guitar lessons. Together, they went on to create the label Mañana, a label dedicated to the creation in Tango and to the development of Argentine music in the world. Makaroff has also composed and performed film scores and television series credits. He has also presented and produced programs for television and radio. In 2005 he co-composed with Christoph H. Müller the original music for Not Here to Be Loved, a film by Stéphane Brizé, and in 2007/2008 the soundtrack for El Gaucho, a documentary fiction film by Argentine director Andres Jarach. The composer/producer duo Müller & Makaroff was thus born. During 2012 & 2013 Müller & Makaroff wrote music for the short film Reencuentro by Argentine director Pablo Giorgelli (Camera d’or in Cannes for his film Las Acacias) and for Evita, a radio lecture written by Pablo Agüero starring French actress Jeanne Moreau. In 2014, Makaroff teamed up again with Christoph H. Müller who together collaborated with vocalist Catherine Ringer to form a new band called Plaza Francia. This resulted in their 7 April 2014 release A New Tango Song Book and a subsequent French/European tour which ended in November 2015. In 2018 Plaza Francia changed its name to Plaza Francia Orchestra and released a self titled album featuring Catherine Ringer, Lura and Maria Muliterno on vocals. They also collaborated on this record with Argentine musicians Pablo Gignoli and Sebastian Volco. The album cover was designed by Argentine artist Antonio Segui who was based in Paris. They started a new tour during Summer 2018 which ended in Abu Dhabi in Autumn 2019. ... Source: Article "Eduardo Makaroff" from Wikipedia in English, licensed under CC-BY-SA 3.0.
