Tango a la Parilla is a curated tango jam session where the musicians learn the concept of playing tango without full notation. We will play Argentine tango music together in a more improvised way, developing the skill that allows musicians to collaborate casually.

Develop your tango arranging skills and knowledge. Some music theory and/or arranging experience recommended.
