New York-based Uruguayan-American pianist and Music Director Polly Ferman and her acclaimed GlamourTango will be in concert on Saturday, September 16 at 7:00 PM at Saint Peter's Church, 619 Lexington Ave @54th Street in Manhattan.

GlamourTango is a unique all-female international, multimedia music and dance show designed to pay homage to women in Tango. GlamourTango is educational and motivational: the ultimate homage to women's empowerment. Conceived by Polly Ferman and directed by her from the piano, it includes clips from 1940's-era black and white Argentinean films and takes the audience on a musical journey through the 20th century with a different and renewed vision of the role of the woman in Tango.

Performers will be pianist, creator and ensemble director Polly Ferman, dancer/choreographer Mariana Parma, guest singer Mariela Marco, flutist Yael Acher "Kat" Modiano, violinist Ina Paris, bassist Iris Ornig and dancers Valeria Solomonoff and Karina Romero.
