It was a Celebration day in Porta San Pietro in Lucca for the unveiling of the foundation stone for a monument to Astor Piazzolla. The ceremony was a lively event: officials from local municipalities were joined by Argentinian representatives – it is a story of emigration and music, a journey from Europe to the Americas. And the evening ended with a Milonga, a concert of music by Piazzolla and traditional Tango dances.
