You know it when you've been TANGOed

Saturday nov. 3rd, the day after the 'Dia De Los Muertos', Quinteto Tango Extremo visited the X., Leiden











They were joined by two very special guestmusicians from Argentina, guitarist and composer Gustavo Mozzi and pecussionist Facundo Guevara, who brought along historic film footage of Buenos Aires and its amazing people, wich was projected during parts of the concert. Beautiful black and white and colour edits of carnaval parades and sacred spirit dances. With the help of a little laptop senor Guevara played perfectly in time with the spirits of the past projected over his head, and it created the effect as if they were dancing along with the band. I wouldn't be surprised if they were. Some dancing couples in the back floated like leaves in a breeze...
