 Multi Cultural Festival Tango Events

Trio of events with colectivo29, Sat 14 – Sun 15 Feb 2009

Colectivo29 are a vibrant, adventurous quintet featuring some of Australia's finest musicians. A variation on the classic Nuevo Tango quintet, Colectivo29 take the timeless music of Buenos Aires and give it a sound distinctively from Melbourne. New arrangements of classic Tango repertoire, lesser known compositions from Argentinian maestros and original tunes all combine producing a post-Piazzolla, post-2001 economic crash mix of passionate and intense music.  www.colectivo29.com
