“A TRIP TO BUENOS AIRES”
Tango ensemble Cucharada performs Argentina’s most treasured musical export. It’ll be a rare opportunity to hear the “Paris of South America” in the “Paris of the Plains”.

Founded originally as a trio (Sean Mawhirter, guitar – Tina Bilberry, violin – Guy Montes, flute), Cucharada has galvanized a collection of artists looking to bring live tango music to the Midwest. With an aim to pursue the canon that is synonymous with Argentina, they intend on being true to the aesthetic while carving out their own interpretations. Some of it is time-tested material while other selections are culled from more recent “Nuevo-Tango” acts. All of it is distilled through a conception of what just a few people can do with a broad palette at hand.
