Sunday afternoon: Tango at NewActon with Los Jovenes del Tango
September 7th, 2010 Posted in 2010 news, Public NewsTango in the Spring 2010 is just 3 weeks away! We’re happy to announce details of the Sunday afternoon event — with live music.
Tango at NewActon with Los Jovenes del Tango (2-4pm)
Venue: Diamant Hotel lobby, New Acton
We have (at last!) finalised the Sunday afternoon social program: a performance by Canberra tango ensemble Los Jovenes del Tango.
We are in partnership with boutique Diamant Hotel in NewActon for this event, and Los Jovenes del Tango will play in their funky hotel lobby (Plus DJ Yuko). It’ll be pretty intimate, but we’ll clear the foyer so there will be a space for a bit of dancing. The Diamant Lounge Bar is adjacent, so you can listen from there as well. There is a good cafe at NewActon, and Parlour WIne Room will be open. So, come out and enjoy lunch or a drink, plus some tango in New Acton.
Here is some blurb about the band:
Los Jovenes del Tango

Liena Lacey – harp, viola
Simon Milman – contrabass
Natalya Tacheci – vocals

Lathika Vithanage – violin”
