Tango No. 9
June 1, 2012 @ 8:30 pm - 11:00 pm
$12 – $20
Tango Until You Soar
For over 15 years, Tango No. 9 has been exploring the breadth and depth of tango, from the classic sounds of the early dance standards through Astor Piazzolla’s revolutionary tango nuevo
all the way up to tango-inspired chamber works that were composed especially for the group. Tonight they will be presenting a mix of new additions to their repertoire, as well as celebrating
the visiting Isabel Douglass and their recently released 4th album, Live at the Columbarium.
Zoltan di Bartolo: vocal
Joshua Raoul Brody: piano
Catharine Clune: violin

“Reliably excellent” – Hurwitt, SF Chronicle
“La dolce vita, Indeed!” – Adam Savetsky, San Francisco Bay Guardian
“As soon as we got settled, the music grabbed us by the emotional necktie and pushed us up
against a sonic wall. Abandoning all desire for chat, we gave ourselves over to the music…” —
Swanhuyser, SF Weekly
“French cigarette smoke from the heart of a dark Paris café comes pouring out of this album …
the lonely sensuality of a bandoneon … the sexy slur of a trombone … the heartbreaking sigh of
a violin and the therapeutic chords of a piano. If this quartet had a vocalist, she would have a
whiskey voice and an angel’s body.” — Tucson Citizen
