Art of the Tango Fugue 

November 28 to 30 at West Point Grey United Church, and December 1 at Pyatt Hall

Bandoneon virtuoso and arranger Jonathan Goldman joins the Vetta String Quartet in what promises to be an atmospheric journey through not only the works of Astor Piazzolla but also The Art of Fugue by Johann Sebastian Bach. In other words, it’s a chance to hear the intricate baroque and the passionate tango in a single, fascinating recital.
