Making her US debut, Sandra Luna updates tango-cancion "spectaculary...with all the strutting no-holds barred emotionalism you'd expect of an old-fashioned Latin Diva." On her international debut - Tango Varon - Luna turns her ear to the future while keeping one foot firmly in the tango's colorful past as she expands the music, normally associated with dancing, to a broader more expansive song form with reworked and reenergized versions of classics from legends like Astor Piazzolla, to newly created compositions that tell the tale of modern life in Buenos Aires. Unafraid to challenge head on the proud, machismo assumption often at the core of tango's image, Luna's insistent performance injects her music with the unique passion of a confident woman.
