Astor PiazzollaMaria, a factory worker in the suburbs of Buenos Aires, becomes a successful singer in the city’s cabarets. A creature of the night, she leads a marginal life, passionately indulging in dance and men. She dies, killed by the bandoneon, before her Shadow returns to wander the streets. We then witness Maria's resurrection, where she gives birth to a child, symbolizing the rebirth of tango. The unique opera by Astor Piazzolla, this highly popular work blends tango, jazz, classical music, singing, theater, and dance.
