The MN Bach Festival’s Outside The Box series presents Baroque Tango, Rhythms of Desire, Longing, and Passion.

The Bach Society of Minnesota, led by Associate Artistic Director Marco Real-d’Arbelles, teams up with the Twin Cities-based Charles Gorczynski Tango Quartet to explore the many twists and turns that bring these two musical languages closer than we imagined. Audiences will feel the push-pull between old and new styles as BSM and CGTQ perform works by masters of tango and baroque. Special guests Sabine Ibes, and Fuego Tango Club founders J Abling and Rachel Moon join the ensembles on stage, adding to the passion and rhythmic drive of music by composers such as Pugliese, Piazzolla, Corelli, and Vivaldi in this exciting collaboration.
