Five internationally acclaimed musicians come together as the London Tango Quintet performing music by the legendary Astor Piazzolla interspersed with stunning instrumental solos.
In 1921 a tango scene in Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse propelled a young Rudolf Valentino to global stardom. Ever since, film makers have used the dance to express the tensions, hidden desires and threats of violence between their characters. The London Tango Quintet’s programme features tangos from the silver screen with Piazzolla’s Libertango and Oblivion and the golden era classics, La cumparsita and Por una cabeza.
Solo recital for this established music series in a beautiful part of Norfolk.
Craig will also be giving a concert to local primary school children earlier in the day.
One of the most acclaimed classical guitarists of his generation, Craig Ogden teams up with the award-winning classical accordionist Miloš Milivojević in a unique duo, showcasing stunning arrangements of classical compositions by composers including Vivaldi, Scarlatti and Piazzolla.

This concert (open to the public) marks the beginning of Craig’s weekend guitar course at Hawkwood. Enjoy exquisite, virtuosic playing in an intimate chamber music setting.
