A Tango for Oprah

MacArthur Award winning pianist, Reginald R. Robinson plays a ragtime tango on a broken outdoor piano in Chicago’s Southside Calumet Park, as Oprah’s Harpo Studios are demolished in Chicago’s gentrifying West Loop neighborhood -- home to the Oprah Winfrey Show for 25 years. From Reginald R. Robinson... This song is called “Sweet Envy“. It’s in the tango style. A rhythmic style originally called Habañera by the Afro-Cubans out of Havana, Cuba. Here are my favorite links to the tune on YouTube.
