An Insight into "Misatango" Concert

Join us for a special concert at the Abu Ghosh Festival 2024, where we will present Martin Palmeri's "Tango Mass"!

This work was inspired by traditional Argentine tango, and particularly by Astor Piazzolla's "tango nuevo." Piazzolla developed a "new tango" that was no longer intended as dance music but for the concert stage. He incorporated contemporary forms and musical developments, giving rise to a complex genre of art music.

The Misa a Buenos Aires, which was first performed by the Orquesta Sinfónica de Cuba in 1996, demonstrates Palmeri's impressive and equally entertaining talent for integrating stylistic features of the tango into his compositions. The text of the work is the classical Catholic Ordinary of the Mass, as it has been set to music for centuries. The scoring for the work includes a mezzo-soprano, mixed choir, tango quartet, and string orchestra, and it remains close to the authentic ensembles of the tango orchestras of Palmeri's native country.

unique musical experience that blends the sacred and the secular
