Save the dates of September 25–27, 2026 for Beethoven's Tango by Fernanda Ghi and Alfredo Minetti!

The MIT Tango Club is honored to partner with world-renowned tango performer, teacher, and artistic director Fernanda Ghi, together with pianist, composer, and anthropologist Alfredo Minetti, to present this original production.

Inspired by the artistic legacy of Ludwig van Beethoven, Beethoven's Tango explores the expressive language of Argentine tango through contemporary dance theater and newly created music. Rather than reproducing Beethoven's compositions, the work uses his life and creative spirit as a source of inspiration to examine the universal nature of artistic creation. Artists Silvio Grand (Dancer) and Richard Scofano (Grammy-nominated Bandoneon) are completing the cast to make this stunning 1 hour 15 min piece.

MIT students and theater technicians will participate through both the production itself as well as through artist talk-backs and tango workshops. We are deeply grateful to the Council For the Arts at MIT (CAMIT) for supporting this project.
