JAZZ TANGO

A chamber concert with South American passion

June 6, 2026, 7:00 PM

"Elvira Godeanu" Dramatic Theater, Targu Jiu

The "Jazz Tango" concert proposes a special sound experience, in an unusual chamber formula: violin, cello and guitar. The protagonists are Natalia Pancec (first violinist), Mădălina Fara (principal cellist) – both at the George Enescu Philharmonic in Bucharest, and guitarist Bogdan Mihăilescu. Three instruments, united in a trio that functions as a real small orchestra, with a full, rich and colorful sound. The melodies, harmonies and rhythms of the tango are reimagined in a new, elegant and surprising form.

Works by Astor Piazzolla, Fernando Carlos Tavolaro and John Williams will be presented in this recital.

The audience is taken through a wide palette of moods and images:
from the passionate and incandescent tango,
to the smooth, flowing milonga,
to ballads full of melancholy, introspection or spirituality.

The repertoire is chosen as a musical travel album, each piece having its own identity, each "page" revealing a different soundscape, but coherent in a unitary whole.

Argentine tango is no longer just the music of dance halls. In recent decades, it has reinvented itself spectacularly, absorbing influences from jazz and classical music and becoming a modern musical language, intense and deeply moving. Thus was born Nuevo Tango – a style that has conquered the world's stages through its expressive force and freedom of interpretation.
