The greatest tango pianists
This show is born out of the small diversion when I recorded the interview with Bernardo Monk for Tango nuevo: before and after Piazzolla.
"Piano is the backbone of the tango music," - said Monk. I asked him about the great pianists.
And - voila! - the idea for the show was born.
