About the event

The year 2006 come to a close with a spectacular musical event: a festival of Argentinean music broadcast live from Buenos Aires. At the height of the Argentinean summer, the Orquesta Filarmónica del Teatro Colon under Daniel Barenboim (conductor & soloist) join the excellent bandoneon virtuoso Leopoldo Federico and his Orquesta Tipica to present an extraordinary New Year’s Eve show with popular tangos and Latin American orchestra classics. The old master of tango, José Carli, has created enchanting new arrangements of works by Argentinean composers Astor Piazzolla, Carlos Gardel, Julio de Caro and Horacio Salgán.
