About the event
Two of Australia’s best tango musicians Daniel Rojas (Sydney) and Stephen Cuttriss (Melbourne) are reunited for an afternoon of electrifying tango and folk-influenced music. With the passion of South America bubbling in his blood, Chilean-born composer and pianist, Daniel Rojas performs the best-loved music of Latin America. Prizewinner in the 2021 International Piazzolla Music Competition, Rojas continues the legacy of such icons as Consuelo Velazquez, Zequinha de Abreu and Astor Piazzolla, while celebrated bandoneón player, Stephen Cuttriss ignites the sonic soundscapes of Argentina on this unique and evocative instrument. Join these two Latin American specialists in a riveting performance of some of the best- known tangos by Piazzolla (such as Libertango, and Oblivion), original compositions by Rojas, and classical classics by Ravel, Bach and more. It promises to be an afternoon to remember!
