OPERA San Antonio's Maria de Buenos Aires tangoes into the Tobin Center this weekend
Just in time for Valentine's Day, OPERA San Antonio is bringing a sensual and seductive opera to the Tobin Center. Astor Piazzolla's and Horacio Ferrer's Maria de Buenos Aires tells the story of the life and death of the eponymous Maria (played by soprano Catalina Cuervo), a tango-obsessed sex worker who was "born on a day when God was drunk." The production also may hold appeal for those not normally drawn to opera, since Piazzolla's music revolutionized tango, adding elements of jazz and classical music to the genre.
