Port City

Port City explores tango music throughout the genre’s history, and features bandoneon visionary Heyni Solera as soloist and composer. Palaver will perform danceable classics alongside contemporary tango-inspired compositions. We will also welcome powerhouse dancers Luna Beller-Tadiar and Sheila Solis Arroyo to join us for a full tanda, or series of tango dances. This performance will celebrate tango’s ongoing evolution and the powerful interplay between music and dance, as well as how the genre is being reclaimed by marginalized identities, especially women and queer artists.

Feeling adventurous? Join us at 6 P.M. for a free tango workshop prior to the performance!

Tickets available through PortTIX, the official box office for the Osher School of Music.
