Flower Piano Lounge: Friday, September 19

Friday, September 19, 2025
4-7:30pm
San Francisco Botanical Garden — Celebration Garden

Los Tangueros del Oeste

Performing from 5-7pm

Los Tangueros del Oeste was founded by bassist/composer Sascha Jacobsen. He’s explored his passion for tango in numerous ensembles, and this might be his most adventurous yet!

In collaboration with Argentine singer Manuel Berterreix, and featuring Argentine virtuoso Pablo Estigarribia on piano, Charles Gorczynski on the bandoneón, Hip-Hop producer Daniel Riera, Venezuelan guitarist Carlos Caminos, and Puerto Rican violinist Ishtar Hernandez, Los Tangueros is steeped in the Nuevo Tango styles of Astor Piazzolla, Gotan Project, and Bajo Fondo.

The group combines beats and textures from Hip-Hop and Electronica, with Flamenco influences filtered through an improvisational lens. Los Tangueros’ singular Nuevo Tango sound is cool and impassioned, sensuous, seductive and utterly dance-inducing.
