Virtual, like last year.
For more than logical and well-known reasons, the new edition of the Gardel Awards was set up as a great television special.
On the one hand, conductors Jay Mammon and Eleonora Pérez Caressi in an empty theater.
On the other hand, recorded musical numbers and the announcement of the winners by personalities.
The beginning, after the entrance of Jay and “la Beba” exchanging nice jokes, was in style: the first tribute of the night, dedicated to the album
3er arco
,
by Los Piojos, originally released in 1996, 25 years ago
.
Andrés Ciro, wearing a tailcoat and top hat
, walked by an abandoned train, came across a kind of time machine apparatus and some of his former colleagues and musicians from Los Persas and La Chilinga magically appeared.
Together, they excelled with great versions of songs like
Maradó
and
Verano del 92
.
Rock de gallera and tailcoat, by the hand of Ciro.

Then came the first item of the night, presented by Bobby Flores: Best Alternative Pop Album, which won
Crambre
, by Nathy Peluso.
Pegadito, another special musical number came, by
Soledad and the Mexican Carlos Rivera
, who made a heartfelt version of
Himno de mi corazón
, by Los Abuelos de la Nada.
Upon the closing of the first block, four more winners were announced:
Best Conceptual Album:
Ya no look back
, by Luis Alberto Spinetta;
Best Tropical Artist Album:
Es lo que hay
, by El Dipy;
Best Quartet Artist Album:

The ceremony will continue until midnight and can be followed through the TNT channel, National Radio and the TNT Latam social networks (YouTube and TikTok).
As a special fact, during the advertising sessions, some scenes from the backstage of the specials and statements by the artists appeared on the networks.
