David Juritz – violin

Craig Ogden – guitar

Miloš Milivojević – accordion

The London Tango Quintet is a unique group of five internationally acclaimed musicians performing tango music at the highest level. Music by the legendary Argentinian composer Astor Piazzolla is interspersed with stunning instrumental solos featuring music by Scarlatti, Marcello and Arvo Pärt. The result is an energetic, inspiring and thoroughly enjoyable evening of relaxed virtuosity.

“We had a wonderful evening with the Quintet, they played brilliantly individually and together. The audience really enjoyed the tango pieces, but also very much appreciated the more classical solos which interspersed the programme.  The evening had a great atmosphere.”
Bradfield Festival of Music, Sheffield
