Growing up in a  family with a Tango music lineage, and after finishing his academic studies at the age of 18, Miguel started to teach music. At the same time,  his increasing interest in  B.A. popular music made him a constant attendant  of the jam sessions held at the  emblematic Británico Bar (a kind of  "Minton's " for tango) in San Telmo. There he got to play with the cream of the crop in sessions where (like in the old jazz days) he who couldn't follow the old masters' pace was automatically rejected.
This training gives him the "chops" required to add to his own music the "down to earth" touch that is the landmark of any real life working musician.
Between 1991 and 1995 he attended several clinics held in B.A. by the Berklee College of Music.
He had the chance, then, to meet Gary Burton, who seemed very interested in some of Miguel's arrangements of tango classics that he shows to him.
After some years spent as a session player in radio and TV shows, Miguel devotes  his entire time to his own project since the early 80's.
