Open Arts LES: Los Chantas

Los Chantas are a multinational tango ensemble based in New York City. Their repertoire draws from the great Argentine tango tradition from the guardia vieja to the present. The group has been playing in milongas, clubs, theaters, and other venues in and around New York since its inception in 2002. With original arrangements of songs by Gardel, Troilo, Salgán, Piazzolla, and others, and a playful, improvised style, Los Chantas infuse classic tangos with new life and unique flavor.

The performance will include the following:
David Hodges – bandoneón
Emilio Teubal – piano
Sergio R. Reyes – violin

They will be playing tangos, milongas, and valses from the Argentine tango tradition along with original compositions. People are welcome and encouraged to dance!

They have a brand new CD just out (Un Veinte), which is available for streaming and digital purchase on Bandcamp: https://loschantas.bandcamp.com/album/un-veinte
