Piazzolla and Beyond
Sunday, December 21, 2025, at 2:30 PM at the Harmony Centre in Owen Sound
This vibrant program takes you on a journey through the rhythmic pulse and emotional depth of tango nuevo. It explores how Astor Piazzolla's voice continues to inspire Canadian composers who blend classical sophistication with the passionate energy of Argentine tango.
You'll hear works by Christos Hatzis (Old Photographs), Victor Davies (Tango from Silhouettes), Martin Kutnowski (Buenos Aires Y2K), and Astor Piazzolla's Four Seasons of Buenos Aires.
