2:30-6:30 EMPANADA MILONGA with Live Tango by Orquesta Z Trio


One of the most unique and favorite tango bands in the Bay Area, we again welcome back ORQUESTA Z TRIO for their last performance this year at Empanada Milonga.
Blending traditional golden era tango with a surprising mix of alternative and original tangos that mix music by the likes of Astor Piazzolla, Quartango, Narcotango, Brandi Carlile, and Metallica
Orquesta Z was the first live tango band to play regularly at Empanada Milonga.
Their current musicians are long-time regulars Sandy Schniewind on bass, Ruth Kravis on violin, and Ben Jong on piano.
Join us for their fun, danceable tango music, leaning towards the slow, sensitive music that speaks of nostalgia and love lost!
