London Philharmonic Orchestra
18th May 2024
Seven outstanding musicians from the worlds of classical, jazz and Latin-American music come together to play and create tango and tango-inspired music.
The five instrumentalists and two singers are joined this evening by a pair of tango dancers to further bring the music to life.
Based on the line up of Astor Piazzolla’s famous quintet, they recreate music that ranges from Piazzolla’s own works to classic Argentine and European tango. They also arrange music in the style of tango and write their own original tango-inspired music with a twist of swinging London.
Come and discover the passionate and magical world of tango!
