Out of a converted clothing factory on the Main, Montreal’s textile district and the local equivalent of Buenos Aires’ La Boca neighborhood, the Sweatshop Tango Ensemble is an encounter between musicians from Argentina and Canada, conjuring up the ghosts of all the immigrants who ironed, sewed, folded and packed on the premises.

Dans une ancienne fabrique de vêtements de la Main, au cœur de l’ancien quartier des textiles de Montréal, soit l’équivalent local du quartier La Boca à Buenos Aires, le Sweatshop Tango Ensemble est la rencontre entre des musiciens de l’Argentine et du Canada, évoquant les fantômes de ces ouvriers immigrants qui ont repassé, cousu, plié et emballé dans ce lieu.
