As a four-time Grammy and Latin Grammy nominee—including nominations for Best Classical Album and Best Small Ensemble Performance—Tambuco is celebrated as a Mexican national treasure and as one of the most innovative chamber ensembles worldwide. The quartet’s members are known for their refusal to be confined by a single style, consistently pursuing perfection and delivering unique, virtuosic performances. Among its many distinctions, Tambuco has received the prestigious Japan Foundation Award for Arts and Culture, Japan’s highest honor bestowed upon an artist.

The ensemble has performed across five continents, with standout appearances at esteemed venues such as Lincoln Center, Kennedy Center, and Walt Disney Concert Hall in the United States; Iino Hall, Toppan Hall, and Tsuda Hall in Tokyo; the Barbican Centre in London; and at the Festival de Radio France in Paris and Montpellier. Tambuco’s tours have also included performances in Germany (Berliner Festspiele) and Australia (Queensland and Canberra music festivals), as well as concerts across Europe, the Middle East, and Latin America.

To date, Tambuco has recorded 12 albums, garnering, in addition to Grammy nominations, two Record Geijutsu nominations in Japan. Tambuco also performed and recorded music for the James Bond film Spectre. Upcoming engagements include performances at Carnegie Hall, at the Tanglewood Festival, and on South American tours, as well as educational projects aimed at fostering the next generation of composers and performers.
