Tehran Quintet will perform works by Argentine composer Astor Piazzolla during a concert at Tehran’s Vahdat Hall on December 22.

Piazzolla was a major Latin American composer of the 20th century who created a new tango that blended elements of jazz and classical music.

The quintet features Sorush Sadeqi on piano, Mehrdad Mehdi on accordion, Alireza Chehreqani on violin, Mohammadreza Jabbar on contrabass and Farzan Falakdehi on electric guitar.

The performance is organized in collaboration with Rooberoo Mansion, an art and cultural institute in Tehran.
