On Saturday night Venetia and I went to a concert at the Kirchner Cultural Centre, music by the Tango Orchestra of Buenos Aires. Just what it sounds like — tango played by an orchestra. It was much as you would expect of any orchestra, except for the five bandoneones. Those are the instruments that look like concertinas but aren’t, and they give tango music its unique melancholy sound. I enjoyed the concert. It was certainly a different kind of tango experience — in stark contrast to the milonga I had danced at in the afternoon! Here’s Venetia’s short video.
