Inspired by the ethnic melting pot of Astor Piazzolla’s Buenos Aires, the Fugata Quintet brings its classical character and dazzling technique to Nuevo Tango. With diverse backgrounds in jazz and world music, the five performers create a distinguished and passionate sound that has been heard in festivals and concert halls from Greece to the UK. On Halloween the Argentine master’s Angels and Diablos will come to life through some of his finest pieces, and two exciting new compositions by Michael Csanyi-Wills and the Quintet’s own James Opstad will receive their premieres.
