About El Turco: (www.tangoeclectique.com)
El Turco is recognized for his creative and expressive style and his
bold and sensitive interpretations of both traditional tango music and
the eclectic, non-traditional music that he incorporates into his d.j.
and instructional repertoire. He is a popular and attentive teacher.
His current focus is to develop Tango Nuevo analysis methods and to
understand and teach the essence of Argentine Tango more effectively
to younger generations.
Though he is considered a virtuoso of "Tango Nuevo", in his dancing
Burak is not adding anything new or "modern" to Tango. Every movement
he uses is taken strictly from the Tango vocabulary. He respects the
music and responds in the traditional places; his syncopa, or rhythm,
is flawless. What he does is deconstruct the usual tango marcado
(marking) and reconstruct it in his own surprising way. Burak's
nontraditional use of the vocabulary prompts curiosity, and
inspiration for other dancers. He is the Artistic Director of Chicago
