The concert will be followed by a talk-back session with the artists.<\/p>\n<p> Cited by The Washington Post as &quot;one of the District&#8217;s finest instrumental ensembles,&quot; the award-winning group will feature &quot;Music and Dance of Argentina,&quot; bringing its own interpretations to this evocative music, universally synonymous with the eternal dance of man and woman. <\/p>\n<p> Following a performance, the U.S. Ambassador to Argentina told the group, &quot;Tonight, you conquered Buenos Aires.&quot; <\/p>\n<p> On the domestic front, QuinTango continues to conquer home-grown audiences with their unique approach and masterful performance. It&#8217;s classical music that induces heavy breathing. It&#8217;s popular entertainment that&#8217;s tethered in elegant style and grace. It&#8217;s virtuosic chamber music that requires one to lower the thermostat. Like jazz and blues, tango delivers heartbreak, humor and romance in dazzlingly diverse styles. <\/p>\n<p> QuinTango is a frequent performer at the Kennedy Center. A typical concert includes 14-18 tangos interspersed with engaging narratives and anecdotes. <\/p>\n<p> The group has recorded five albums; their fifth release, &quot;Triumfal,&quot; received a &quot;Whammie&quot; award in the Latin Recording category during the Washington Area Music Association&#8217;s 23rd annual awards ceremony. <\/p>\n<p> Concert tickets are $10 for adults and $5 for students and senior citizens and can be purchased at the door. The talk-back session with the artists will occur immediately after the concert.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8216;QuinTango,&#8217; a quintet of two violins, cello, bass and piano dedicated to the musical performance of tango &quot;QuinTango,&quot;
