Be inspired and uplifted as award-winning pianist and composer, Santon, The Musical Savant, who is blind from birth and has autism performs his original compositions on the piano, including “Seeing With My Heart” and "New Hopes in a Major Key”, and danceable pieces such as “Parkie’s Waltz” and “Samba in Nahant.” He'll sing an original song, "St. Petersburg," and surprise the audience with his performance of Louis Armstrong’s “What a Wonderful World”.
The program begins with a gentle and sweet tempo of Santon’s music and voice, then moves into lush melodies and irresistible rhythms of the Boston Tango Orchestra (BTO.) The BTO, comprised of a talented violinist, pianist, double bass player, and bandoneon player, shift from pure intimate lines to vigorous passages delivering uplifting tango music. The program features world-renowned Argentinian Tango Dancers Analia Carreño and Luis Ramirez performing to the sound of the BTO, showcasing an exquisite and perfect blend of high technique, musicality, and authentic feeling of the intrinsic roots of Argentine Tango.
