Accordionist Christian Bakanic will perform in a presentation of Piazzolla’s only opera “Maria de Buenos Aires”, at the MusikTheater in Vienna, Austria from February 12th to 16th, 2024.

Christian will perform with the “Folkmilch” Ensemble (picture below), which also includes Klemens Bittmann (violin & mandola), Eddie Luis (double bass & percussion) and Andrés Añazco (piano).

“Tango, jazz, folk and a bit of Baroque music: Argentinian composer Astor Piazzolla created the Tango Nuevo out of all this. In his only opera, Piazzolla shapes the rise of tango from the suburbs in the title character: however, for “María de Buenos Aires” this tango ends deadly”.
