Raul Jaurena & Maria de Buenos Aires Tango Orchestra

The 15th annual Chicago SummerDance series presents free Argentine Tango dance lessons by Tango 21, Inc. and live music by Raul Jaurena & Maria de Buenos Aires Tango Orchestra, performing Argentine Tango music.

Raul Jaurena, master of the Tango, is among today’s most prominent bandoneon players. His music plays a very personal tribute to the influences of his native South America and his adopted hometown of New York. It combines the traditional roots of the tango and the style of the “Tango Nuevo” influenced by Astor Piazzolla.
