What happened in our 2023-24 season

David Juritz, the London Tango Quintet’s director, has brought together this exceptional tango quintet. “Craig, Miloš and I have known each other for years. Their diaries are pretty hectic but, a few times a year, we get together to play tango. It’s fantastic fun, even wild at times, but that’s not to say it isn’t challenging as well. To do it justice you have to approach it just as you would any other great music – with a sense of style and your total commitment, but also leaving enough freedom to experiment. When it happens you feel like you’ve been set free. It’s just exhilarating.”

London Tango Quintet's recording ‘Dancing with Piazzolla’ was selected as album of the week (w/c 15 April) on BBC Radio 3's Essential Classics and tracks are being played throughout the week. Here’s a link to one of the programmes https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m001y2bs (listen from 3 hours in) and others from the week are also available on BBC Sounds. Georgia Mann is raving about it as one of her favourite recordings!
