Viva Tango!
April 28, 2024
The Project… Letters from Argentina, composed by Lalo Schifrin, was premiered in 2005 at a performance of the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center. The work was presented soon after by the Santa Fe Chamber Music Festival, the La Jolla SummerFest, and Chamber Music Northwest, which joined the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center in commissioning the work. This commission gave birth to the program Viva Tango!, which pairs Schifrin’s work with music of Ástor Piazzolla.
