Julien Labro Demonstrates the Bandoneón | OSL Visionary Sounds | Astor Piazzolla

The bandoneón, an accordion style instrument that originated in the churches of Germany to mimic the organ, has become a quintessential instrument to the music of tango—but do you know how that instrument made its way to that part of the world? Ahead of our first Visionary Sounds performance, bandoneón soloist Julien Labro shares a brief history of the instrument and gives us a tour of how its unique sound is created.
