Dear Tangueros

 

You wanted more, here it is: Two more Musicality Workshops with Tango
Pianist Octavio Brunetti and Tango Instructor Annatina Luck! 

 

These two Workshops are special designed for dancers, and for all of you who
want to learn more about one of the most sophisticated and beloved music of
the world. 

 

Conducted by Tango Pianist Octavio Brunetti, (see Bio below) one of the most
sought after Tango Pianists in the US, who won the international Tango
competition in New York City and has played with various Tango Orchestras in
Argentina, Europe and New York for over 15 years, will share all his
knowledge of Tango Music, and together with Tango Instructor Annatina, will
take the theory to the practice. Octavio and Annatina have not only
experience as performers, but also as teachers, and the clear structured
workshops are special designed to improve everyone's musicality. You will
learn to use the music in your favor, improve rhythm and dynamics, and also
learn to interpret the styles of the different orchestras. Only a solid
knowledge about the music will allow you to have the freedom to interpret it
and make it your friend, so you will be able to add your own style to your
dancing. 

In each workshop we will focus on two different orchestras, starting with
Francisco Canaro and Osvaldo Fresedo, two of the most popular orchestra of
the 30's & 40's, followed by Hector Varela & Osvaldo Pugliese, two
remarkable and most contrasting orchestras of the 50's. Live examples on the
Piano, special developed, playful exercises and more tricks and insights
will make these workshops a fun and meaningful experience for all levels.

was trained in classical Piano, and before he even finished his studies at

Martin in Cordoba, still at a very young age. In 2002 he was named conductor
