Celebrity Concert Series: Quartango

Comprising four highly accomplished musicians, bound by their shared passion for the tango and driven by an unceasing desire to make a close connection with their audience, Quartango offers a performance filled with subtle nuances and a blend of colors that reflects both the classics and modernity as well as the effervescence of the milonga.

Quartango’s vast repertoire is characterized by refined musical arrangements, full of energy, the majority of which are the creations of pianist Richard Hunt (who has also composed some 20 original works for the group). While these arrangements explore Astor Piazzolla’s tango nuevo, they also include hints of the classics, jazz and Celtic music that are as subtle as they are unexpected. Quartango sheds new light on the music of the tango, elevating it to an international level.

Location: Convocation Hall, UH-213 | McMaster University | 1280 Main Street West | Hamilton, ON

When: Friday, November 15, 8 p.m.

Tickets: $20 regular, $15 senior, $5 students
