After a successful premiere two years ago, “Tango Evening” returned for its third annual performance at the Music Conservatory of Westchester on Friday, April 23. The concert highlighted the beauty of the tango featuring original compositions and arrangements by Marco Valentino Quartero. Quartero was born in Italy and studied classical piano as a child. As a young boy, he was often asked to play the accordion for people to dance. When his repertory of waltzes, mazurkas, and tangos was exhausted, Marco began improvising and “the patrons continued to dance, much to my relief – and delight,” he said.
At the end of the program, Carolina Escalona and her partner Mario Zea, from “Strictly Traditional Argentine Tango,” danced improvisational social Tango for the audience.
