María de Buenos Aires by Astor Piazzolla is a surreal “tango operita” that blends tango nuevo with elements of jazz and contemporary music. The story of María, a symbolic embodiment of Buenos Aires, intertwines sensuality, mysticism and urban folklore. The performance is led by Argentine bandoneonist Marcelo Nisinman with an international ensemble and vocal soloists Luciana Mancini, Rubén Peloni and narrator Daniel Bonilla-Torres.
