Who better to conduct an evening of evocative tango and Latin American inspired rhythms than Argentinean-born Barenboim? Despite playing music outside their usual repertoire, the Berlin Philharmonic enthrals the audience with an exotic programme, which begins with Ravel's Bolero and Bizet's Carmen Suite and then features special arrangements of lesser known melodies and dances from a host of South American composers.
