Known for their dynamic collaborations and genre-blending performances, Ensemble Ibérica brings together world-class artists to reimagine classical, folkloric, and contemporary repertoire, creating immersive experiences that connect audiences across cultures. Led by guitarist and artistic director Beau Bledsoe, the group features Turkish cellist and vocalist Ezgi Karakus and percussionist John Currey, whose combined artistry reflects a shared commitment to expanding the reach of underrepresented music through performance, education, and international collaboration.

This special program explores a rich tapestry of global musical traditions, featuring the modern Argentine tangos of Astor Piazzolla alongside beloved classic tangos. They will also present Renaissance works by John Dowland, whose music reflects the expressive depth of early European art music. Expanding beyond these traditions, the program also includes folkloric music from Algeria and the Netherlands, highlighting the diverse cultural voices and musical languages that connect communities across continents.
