Tami Tango Trio

Tonight we went to a concert by the Tami Tango Trio. This group from Argentina is touring in the U.S. and has been making presentations on the folk music history of Argentina to music and Spanish classes at Dordt. I thoroughly enjoyed the concert. The musicians were fabulous, especially the woman playing the piano. It is amazing to me that a person's fingers can move that quickly. Jon Felipe's insistence that we sit in the front row ensured we had a good view of the performance. I also really enjoyed watching the dancers. They perform all those intricate dance steps without once trodding on their partner's foot. They also changed outfits and shoes between every dance number. The mind boggles at the amount of luggage they must have brought with them. It was a fun evening and we capped it off with a bedtime snack of ice cream after we got home.
