Federico Leopoldo Quintet & Fall Welcome Reception (09.25.24)

BU School of Music welcomes you to an evening of musical exploration that transports you to the vibrant heart of South America, where the rich traditions of Argentine Tango and Colombian Andean Music intertwine. This special program, co-sponsored by the Center for Latin American Studies, invites you to experience the cultural tapestry of these two distinct yet complementary genres, which share a deep connection through rhythm, emotion, and the celebration of life.
