It is getting cold. But Tangueros and Tangueras have warm embraces. So let's help The Westminster Night Shelter Project though Tango Shelter.
So on Saturday 3rd December 2022 we celebrate a charity milonga in Mayfair at the elegant Farm Street Church Hall across the road from The Connaught Hotel in aid of the Farm Street Winter Night Shelter Project and lunches.
All the DJs, musicians and performers will be providing their services free without expenses. So also will the organisers and support staff.
Think of this when buying lottery tickets
In order of appearance:
The DJ
Warren Edwardes Organiser and Traditional Tango DJ
Silky smooth traditional tangos blending energetic 40s Golden Age with melodic 50s Silk Age plus a few 30s valses, big 60s tangos and contemporary-traditional tangos. There'll be a slick tsunami alternating rhythmical and lyrical tangos from simple to complex with a tilt to passionate romanticism.
