  1. Sounds like a great concert. I love Jazz & Argentine Tango. So I'm very interested in how fusion of both music would sound. Wish I were in New York.

  2. Hi Coco. Thank you for your comment! Tango with a jazzy twist actually sounds good. Avantango has many YouTube clips you can check out. We especially liked the ones with dancers. Take care and thanks again for writing.
