Sunday Afternoon Milonga with Maximo Pujol
The Argentinian composer Maximo Pujol and his Trio from Buenos Aires played at the Milonga held last Sunday Afternoon .
Thanks to everyone who came and supported this incredible trio of musicians. Maximo and the trio initially played examples of rhythmic variations that occur in tango music, then played a set of beautiful tango dance music.
It was a wonderful afternoon full of very special tango music, mystery and magic…
