We believe more cultural inclusion and understanding of Latin American cultures is needed in the UK and we aim to move away from the typical clichés into the deeper and broader viewpoints of the beauty and creativity inherent in them. We also aim to promote more equality in representation between the genders. We hope to increase our audiences awareness and knowledge of the fascinating music, poetry and dance that have been born out of the potent mix of European and Indigenous cultures, immigration, colonialism and diaspora. We will explore the power of human creativity to imagine new identities and cultures which have much to teach us today in a fragmented and increasingly divisive world. Our current main projects are the London Tango Orchestra, a professional group, and the Caminito Tango Orchestra Escuela for amateurs, students and semi-pro musicians who wish to learn how to play the style. Please sign up for our newsletter to stay informed and we hope to see you in one of our activities soon! If you feel like donating some money to help us grow we would be very grateful and the link is just below!
