Dansez avec Piazzolla

Piazzolla transformed tango by infusing it with a new freedom: an urban, restless, poetic spirit in which the bandoneon becomes the narrator of raw emotions and melancholy impulses. From the moving farewell of Adiós Nonino to the energy of the Aconcagua Concerto, a rich, modern, incandescent musical language emerges. With its flashes of theatre and mystery, Maria de Buenos Aires extends this exploration of Argentina’s sensual, haunted capital. For this evening, Gemma New brings together two masters of the bandoneon, William Sabatier and Rómulo Larrea—the latter a key figure in Quebec tango—to honour both its Argentine heritage and its flourishing in Montreal. A vibrant immersion where passion, insistent rhythms and vivid emotion meet.
