Sunday- the pilmgrimage to Carlsfeld!
At 13:00 we will travel to Carlsfeld, about 1 hour drive from Chemnitz, for a very special excusion to the site of E.L. Arnold’s factory where tango’s essential bandoneon was created.
We will pay our respects at the monument of Alfred Arnold, who preserved the bandoneon of tango and exported it to Argentina and Uruguay. We will meet an 82 year old master bandoneon who worked in the original AA factory, and a young man who is reviving hand made bandoneon making in the original E.L. Arnold factory space.
We highly recommend that all who can take this chance to travel together and pay our respects to the men and the place who created, produced and preserved the beloved bandoneon of Argentine tango.
