For this evening of South American music Mr McFall's Chamber are joined by two of Europe’s finest tango musicians, bandoneon player Lysandre Donoso (Cuarteto El Compas, Roulotte Tango) and violinist Cyril Garac (Quinteto El Despues) and by South American singers Juanjo Lopez Vidal, from Argentina, and Valentina Montoya Martinez, from Chile.

Tango instrumental classics, music by Astor Piazzolla and songs of exile written by Valentina will sit alongside 'orquestra tipica' numbers - traditional dance band music for milonga. Tango professionals Ricardo Oria and Jenny Frances will showcase their exquisite dancing, before opening up the floor to those in the audience wishing to dance.

Relax and enjoy the music, or bring your dancing shoes, and be transported to a milonga in Buenos Aires.

Pre-concert dance classes with Jenny and Ricardo start at 6pm. Classes are free but ticketed. Please note that spaces are limited and usually sell out. Please email judith@mcfalls.co.uk to pre-book.
