QuinTango is celebrating seven consecutive years at the Piccolo
Spoleto Festival
(<http://www.piccolospoleto.com/events/default.aspx?progid=12&eventid=185&perfid=835>www.piccolospoleto.com/QuinTango/)
with a 2-concert series: The History of Tango in 2 Acts. Act I is The
Golden Age, including such famous tangos as Inspiracion, Gallo Ciego,
favorites by Carlos Gardel (El Dia Que Me Quieras and Por una Cabeza),
and featuring a new arrangement of the candombe Azabache. Act 2 is
Piazzolla's Revolt!, including Libertango, Adios Nonino, and Esqualo plus
tangos by Piazzolla's contemporaries Salgan, Plaza and Berlinghieri, and
a new arrangement of Otono Porteno by QuinTango's multi-talented cellist,
Jorge Espinoza. You can attend these acts in either order - or pick your
favorite period. Emilie Tobias & Harby Gonzalez, who danced with us
last year at Piccolo, are dancing on both concerts. The programs are
posted on our web site, if you want to pick specific pieces
