Birthday Celebration Choices

Why We're Celebrating: Veinte años no es nada

Two decades of music-making have taken us to the White House, Buenos Aires, Montevideo, tours in Costa Rica, Guatemala, France, Italy, and performances with orchestras in Mexico, Kansas, California, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Florida, Georgia, South Carolina. We have spent memorable weeks in community residencies in Iowa, Oklahoma, North Carolina and Virginia and ten years at Charleston’s Piccolo Spoleto Festival. We have developed strong partnerships with the Virginia Commission for the Arts, Washington Performing Arts, and our home base of Alexandria. We have performed for presidents, ambassadors, film stars, and – most memorably – thousands of school children and audiences across America.  ​
QuinTango in 2007
Along the way we have made wonderful friends who are now part of the QuinTango family. Whether you travel overseas with us (our 8th international Fans & Friends tour is in September), attend our annual  StringTango youth concerts, or get your QuinTango fix by listening to a CD or QuinTango Radio on Pandora or by streaming us on Spotify, you are a huge part of what has kept us going for twenty years. We want to celebrate together! I promise it will be a memorable and moving concert in a magnificent room. Please come be a part of this special afternoon and share a champagne toast to tangos and friendship.
