Comments & ratings
Come and see a cool contemporary Argentinean ensemble, the ENS, led by Avant-garde composer, Oscar Edelstein, La Trastienda, 10th May 21hs. Book on line to choose your seat. It's not tango but it has all the intensity, passion and paradox of Argentina! "It's music in a physical sense, authentic dithyrambic music, realized simultaneously with millimetrical accuracy by an ensemble that Edelstein directs like someone possessed." Clarin, 2009
Tickets are between $35 (standing) to $90 for a seat at a table. Good food and ambient.
