Trio Agora - "Hotel Tango" Album Launch

Where did tango come from, and how many people and cultures have been fascinated by its rhythms, songs and dances?

With their new CD 'Hotel Tango' Trio Agora invites us on a journey through the history and development of the tango. From its roots to its manifold manifestations worldwide, the trio presents tango as a unique mixture of European, South American and African idioms. With arrangements and dedicated compositions, the trio explores the genre from a personal perspective. Look forward to a reimagined version of Astor Piazzolla's 'Las cuatro estaciones portenas', works of Stravinsky, Gardel, Ravel, Ginastera and more.
