InQ Episode 108: "The Tango Singer"

Bruno is a PhD student from New York. When he hears about Julio
Martel, a tango singer with a marvelous voice, he gets on a plane
and heads to Buenos Aires. There he will meet people who will
help him reconstruct Martel’s life and his passion for old
tangos. As Bruno gets closer to meeting Martel, he comes closer
and closer to understanding why Martel sings, and the
significance of the places he chooses to sing.


A deep and emotional story of Argentina’s past and present filled
with music. A fascinating tale, even for a reader unfamiliar with
Argentina’s (and Buenos Aires’) geography.
