María lives and dies, sings and dances, giving birth to the destiny of a city, Buenos Aires, and of a music, Piazzolla's Nuevo Tango . Powerful and dreamlike, this María of Buenos Aires lets us experience the unsettling magic of Buenos Aires nights .

Like a true sorcerer, Ástor Piazzolla blends tango, jazz, and classical music in his crucible. From an urban legend—that of a young factory worker who became a tango singer and then a prostitute, and on whose grave the city of Buenos Aires is said to have grown—germinates a vital cycle, as carnal as the pulse of tango: dead or alive, daughter or mother, María haunts the city. Sung, spoken, danced, her drama is surreal or mystical, embodied and searing. The work remains unclassifiable, like its performers—starting with Sol García, who embodies María here. In Amélie Parias's staging and under the artistic direction of William Sabatier, whose bandoneon leads an orchestral ensemble of rare colors, the complete version in eighteen tableaux is finally presented.
