Astor Piazzolla was an Argentine composer who changed how the world sees tango. He spent his youth discovering his virtuosity in the bandoneon and eventually grew to work with composers like Ginastera and Boulanger.

Piazzolla's music is so clearly exciting and alive and introduces listeners to tango and jazz within the orchestral setting. His "Libertango" is one of his most famous orchestral works and is often rearranged for smaller settings.

Curious about Piazzolla's music? Already a fan? Join us for our February 14th performance with Imani Winds and Boston Brass: the groups will be on stage together performing his "Maria de Buenos Aries".

to some unforgettable moments with South High's band! 🎺 Over the years, we've been honored to connect South High students with world-renowned brass ensembles like Canadian Brass, Boston Brass, Mnozil Brass, and most recently, Rodney Marsalis Big Brass Band.

At last Friday’s concert, they brought the house down in the finale—firing up the audience and earning a standing ovation. Thanks so much to these talented students for being part of the show!🔥🎶

Tuckerman Hall is listed in the National Register of Historic Places, and is right in Downtown Worcester!

The original architect, Josephine Wright Chapman - one of very few female architects at the time - was contracted for this project by what was the Worcester Woman's Club just before the turn of the 20th century. Her work can be seen along the east coast, from Cambridge to D.C. Tuckerman Hall is special in structure and design, and the acoustics are something to write home about. Join us in this intimate hall that feels like stepping back in time for one of our spring performances.

February 14: Imani Winds & Boston Brass
March 2: Ian Bostridge
