About

"They play a mix of Gonzalez originals and pieces by Uruguayan masters like Jaime Roos and Ruben Rada, Gonzalez combining her attractive light singing voice with her earthy, lirical tenor playing. Her own tango - Mujer soñando con la evasion," based on the painting by Joan Miro - is a standout: a tango rhythm and melody twisted with modern dissonant harmonies in the manner of Astor Piazzolla, and a subdued interlude for Gonzalez 's probing tenor work. At several points during the show, she joins her percussionists, grabding the medium-sized repique drum, which is painted green, purple , and yellow - the colors of her neighborhood".
