Our double bassists shine in this performance of traditional Finnish Tango.

Born on the streets of Buenos Aires and Montevideo, the tango became one of the most popular dance styles across the world in the 20th century, winning hearts with its playful and passionate style. It found an unlikely second home in Finland, where Finnish Tango emerged as its own unique style. Our double bassists capture the passion and energy of Finnish Tango in this playful performance that shows off the extraordinary capabilities of the double bass.
