Nuevo Tango: JP Jofre, bandoneon and Tommy Mesa, cello
Argentinian bandoneon master JP Jofre joins highly-acclaimed Cuban-American cellist Tommy Mesa for a program exploring the fusion of classical music and tango. Performing beloved works by Astor Piazzolla alongside original works by the Grammy-nominated Jofre, the duo will show you the future of tango in an evening of music unlike anything you have ever experienced.
Jofre offers “…a striking demonstration of the bandoneon’s varied moods, from eerie croons to spiky jollity” -The New Yorker
