Tango should not be treated as classical music; it’s party music that can be danced to, according to Orquesta Tipica Fernandez Fierro. In their homeland Argentina the orchestra members are treated like rock stars and they dress accordingly. They leave the tanguero costume at home, but do take their traditional acoustic instruments with them on stage to bring true, fired up tango. ‘The vibe’s hip and energetic. The music’s totally infectious’ (The Guardian).
