Seductive, haunting, and intoxicating, this "stunningly original" opera pulses to the passion and beat of Astor Piazzolla's revolutionary Nuevo tango and Horacio Ferrer's mesmerizing, imaginative poetry. Maria de Buenos Aires is a surreal spiritual journey set to the beat of Argentine tango. Pulse and poetry play an equal role in which the melody is transformed into a series of mesmerizing moments rich in metaphor. Maria embodies everything that is the Argentinian people. Totally consumed by passion yet fiercely maintaining her independence, Maria fights for survival and freedom, never surrendering. Piazzolla's tango music for this story is irresistible, incisive, electrifying, provocative and moving.
