They will be giving a series of intermediate/pre-advanced nuevo tango workshops! "Innovative dancer and teacher of tango nuevo. He is known as El Pulpo or octopus for his fluid and intricate leg moves. Esbrez created and named several tango movements including: ocho loco, sentada girada, elevador, or el el?stico. He explored the concept of trap sacadas (sacadas con agarre) and enganches into innovative variations. His style is so notorious that when the dancer starts combining several leg moves that look like Pulpo's it is being called pulpeadas. Developed the concept of suspension as a tool to generate the control and fluidity that is part of his dance."

Please inquire! See you at the workshops! abrazos Yesim "La Turca" www.yesimlaturca.com BIOS: Norberto ?El Pulpo? Esbrez has twenty years of professional experience as a dancer, tango teacher and choreographer. He is the third generation of a tanguero family, son and grandson of bandoneon players. He has worked for the most important theaterss and show-places in Buenos Aires, such as Teatro San Martin, Teatro Astral, Caf? Tortoni. El Viejo Almacen, La Ventana and many others. Norberto?s style is characterized by creativity and improvisation. This avant-garde artist, was one of the first to use the expression ?Tango Nuevo? to talk about dance. Since the beginning of his career he showed his capacity to innovate, creating a very personal image. He is considered as Rey de los ganchos (King of ganchos).His perfect understanding of technique enables him to invent and improvise complex sequences of ganchos, sacadas, enganches, that made him known as Pulpo (The Octopus). This vision of dance is wonderfully applied when he performs, always improvising. His dance is based on the communication and understanding with his partner, and characterized by continuous, round, soft movements. Today, after 22 years of studying Tango, El Pulpo manages to combine tango?s close embrace with the leg ability of Tango Nuevo. St?phanie began dancing tango when she moved from France to Buenos Aires to write her Master?s thesis on the history of the social and cultural aspects of tango. Since 2004 she has been studying extensively with maestro Rodolfo Dinzel, with particular interest in improvisation and role definition in tango dance. She participated in the creation of tango events mixing dance, music and pictures of Argentinean and foreign artists in the Club Estrella de Maldonado, Buenos Aires, and performed in Argentina and Colombia. After she received as an historian she dedicated herself to dance, also discovering dance-theater with Jos? Gar?falo. She began partnering with el Pulpo Esbrez in 2008, and they have been teaching and performing in Brasil, United States, Argentina and France. They have been teaching together in the Pulpo?s Tango Week 2008.

His father was a well-respected professional bandoneon player and Rafael grew up surrounded by tango. It's no surprise that he went on to express the 2/4 on the dance floor. Having spent his life as an avid jazz fan and musician, the parallels between jazz improvisation and the intimate "conversation" of tango become an integrated force in his dancing. While he has studied with some of the greats, he considers Manuel Martinez his true mentor. Martinez is a maestro of the Villa Urquiza style, which Rafael considers the best and personally most enjoyable tango form. As a teacher, he now spices his excellent training with his own style, imparting the essentials of classic tango technique, while encouraging students to find their own tango voice. Over the years, Rafael has performed at events in such esteemed venues as REDCAT, Opera Pacific, John Anson Ford Theater, et al. Workshops both weekends and during the week, milongas on both Saturdays, plus Thursday night reception and event with artist Sylvia Horwitz, including a Gallery Talk by the artist, beginner's tango lesson with Lois Donnay, milonga and performance by Rafael Galante. Housing available. Registration discounted until April 10th.

Coming from three generations of Buenos Aires tangueros, Pulpo has studied tango for 22 years, and today joins the classic Argentine Tango close embrace with the relaxed 'legs ability' of Tango Nuevo, a phrase he coined. Known as PULPO ( the Octopus) because of his unique fluidity of movement incorporating complex sequences of beautiful, round, soft leg play with suspensions and smoothness of lead, he is one of the most innovative of tango dancers, always respecting the special connection and communication between partners that is tango.

Milonga only - $15 ********************************************************** BIOS: Norberto "Pulpo" Esbrez has twenty years of professional experience as a dancer, tango teacher and choreographer. He is the third generation of a tanguero family, son and grandson of bandoneon players. He has worked for the most important theatres and show-places in Buenos Aires, such as Teatro San Martin, Teatro Astral, Caf? Tortoni. El Viejo Almacen, La Ventana and many others. Norberto lived for seven years in Brazil and opened his first dance studio en S?o Paolo. After coming back to Buenos Aires, he started to travel in United States, France, Germany, Russia, Japan, China, Italy and Holland, contributing to the apparition and growing of many tango communities. Besides his regular participation at CITA (International Congress of Argentine Tango, Buenos Aires), he has been teaching in different festivals all over the world. He is the founder of the popular festival Pulpo's Tango Week, which takes place annually in November in Buenos Aires. Norberto?s style is characterized by creativity and improvisation. This avant-garde artist was the first to use the expression ?Tango Nuevo? to talk about dance. Since the beginning of his career he showed his capacity to innovate, creating a very personal image. His perfect understanding of technique enables him to invent and improvise complex sequences of ganchos, sacadas, enganches, that made him known as Pulpo (The Octopus). This vision of dance is wonderfully applied when he performs, always improvising. His dance is based on the communication and understanding with his partner, and characterized by continuous, round, soft movements. Please register early! Looking forward to seeing you! I.

I have heard an old master guitarist say: 'Duende is not in the throat; duende surges up from the soles of the feet.' Which means it is not a matter of ability, but of real live form; of blood; of ancient culture; of creative action." Federico Garc?a Lorca, "The Theory and Function of Duende" Dear Ladies and Gentlemen of Tango, On Sunday, May, 10, 2009, TangOl? Compa??a de Danza will present it's show "Duende" at the Crossroads Theater On The Rail. TangOl?

TangOl? Compa??a de Danza brings to the public an exciting mix of music and dance, fusing Argentine Tango music with Flamenco singing, dancing Argentine Tango with Flamenco music, merging in one choreography both types of music and dance, as well as presenting both Argentine Tango and Flamenco in their traditional, classic forms. What: TangOl? Compa??a de Danza presents "Duende". When: Sunday, May 10, 2009, 7PM. The theater will open at 6:30PM.

We're thrilled to be able to share them with you again in this unique 20-hour couples-only program. If you value as we do the opportunity to work very closely with the best the tango world has to offer, please consider joining us in May for this very special program. Unlike the sold-out "General Seminars" offered in Colorado in the last two years, this year we asked GyG to open up the treasure box for 2009 and share with you a sampling of the "Thematic Seminar" gems they've developed in recent years. Well, we didn't expect to be so lucky! This musicality-focused thematic seminar is a fresh creation for them, offered only once before in Switzerland (happening as you read this!) Those of you who have already attended one or more of Gustavo & Giselle's "General Seminars" (we've done five ourselves, so they definitely are worth repeating!) know a lot about the kind of experience you can look forward to - but one thing that's hard to convey is just how rewarding it is to go so deeply with them into a selected topic during these Thematic Seminars. While this May event won't offer a-la-carte classes in the week following as we've done in July in the past two years, there will be a full roster of tango social dance opportunities in the Denver/Boulder area during your stay, and of course the traditional Saturday night blowout milonga at Boulder's Avalon Ballroom. For the complete fanatics among you, this scheduling DOES offer the possibility of combining the Thematic Seminar experience with attending the acclaimed Denver Tango Festival over the Memorial Day weekend immediately following. After a week of work with the maestros, you'll be ready for the Festival experience of your life! Price for the program is US$595 per person, couples only. The program runs from Monday May 11 through Saturday May 16 during the day, two to four hours a day, with two-hour "half-days" on Wednesday and Saturday. Full schedule detains are on the website at www.danceoftheheart.com/CTE2009Main.htm As usual, you'll be able to sign up for the couples-only Seminarios online at our website using your credit card through PayPal at www.danceoftheheart.com, or alternatively send a check to "DOTH LLC" to the address below. We'll be in further touch ahead of time with those of you attending, because we have some special enhancements planned for this year to make your experience that much more rewarding. Please let us know about any questions you may have, mark your calendars, watch the website to make sure you don't miss your chance to get in before it sells out again, and we'll see you in the springtime Rockies in a month!

This time, however, the trip is very special and meaningful for our professional career. Individually, we have enjoyed a successful artistic and professional journey for over 15 years. We both have had personal experiences that have helped us accumulate and build our current experience as dancers and instructors. We have participated in numerous tango shows and events in many countries, among them, Spain, Italy, Germany, France, Brazil, Colombia, Argentina and the United States. Such as a professional tango couple, we have visited more than 25 cities in the U.S. and, last year, we made our professional debut as an artistic tango couple in Buenos Aires. During this time together, we have represented Argentine tango overseas with dignity. We have organized numerous tango events with well-known tango stellar performers, and we are working now on the creation of our own tango company, which will soon be offering performances in theaters. Thanks to our effort and dedication, and in recognition to our trajectory and artistic work, this year we have been invited to perform in the most important milongas in Buenos Aires. It is an honor for us to share with you, our tango community, this valuable recognition, which makes us extremely happy. Following is the schedule of our upcoming performances in Argentina: Friday, April 17th - Centro Cultural El Levante, Rosario Friday, April 24th - Milonga Parakultural, Sal?n Canning, Buenos Aires Saturday, April 25th - Milonga El Beso, Buenos Aires, (Not confirmed yet) Sunday, April 26th - Milonga Sue?o Porte?o, Buenos Aires Tuesday, April 28th - Milonga Porte?o y Bailar?n, Buenos Aires Wednesday, April 29th - Confiteria La Ideal, Buenos Aires Please, visit www.parakultural.com.ar We'll be back in the U.S. May 1st, and look forward to celebrating our successes in Argentina with you.

Milonga starts at 6 p.m. Show starts at 8 p.m. http://www.galloarts.org/Events/EventDetails.aspx?id=655 Featuring a cast of 14 artists, the sensuality of tango comes alive as this troupe explores the evolution of this mesmerizing art form. Tango First Century highlights Paris in the roaring twenties, the unforgettable Carlos Gardel, the golden age of tango in the 1940s, and the contemporary tango of Astor Piazzolla. Romulo Larrea?s ensemble, formed in 1990, provides the backbone for this breathtaking production, performing a vast tango repertoire using an unorthodox combination of traditional tango trio (bandoneon, piano and double bass) and classical quartet (two violins, viola and cello).

'Queer' is a term that is now used to expand on the meaning of the gay liberation movement. Most crucially, it shifts the focus from sexuality to gender, questioning the gender binary which constrains the expressiveness of many people -- gay and straight. A queer perspective is one which allows and encourages fluid and changing gender roles, images, and identities. Queer Tango is a home for gay and lesbian dancers, for transgender dancers, for women leaders who are breaking the rigid gender roles of the tango world ?likewise men who like to follow, and for new ways of experiencing the roles of the dance, like swapping the lead. Queer Tango is inclusive, which means that people are welcome to dance tango in any roles they want, including the traditional ones. With maximum enthusiasm, Queer Tango Boston welcomes everyone to all events. Encouragement and support from the established tango community is very much appreciated.

At that time she met Coco Orlando Diaz, and they began performing together at Les Trottoirs de Buenos Aires in Paris. In 1986, they took their own show to Montreal and Toronto.

In 1987 she opened Tanzart with her partner Angelika Fischer, where she hosted Arquimbau's visits to Berlin. In 1994 Brigitta choreographed and danced in Tango Marathon in the Theaterhaus Stuttgart and Tango Vision in the Podewil Berlin.

A forceful, enticing tango - The Larrea ensemble delivers a sensual, gritty style to the melancholy music of the bandoneon. ?the bandoneon is wielded by Larrea with unusual, invigorating rhythmic force. Tangos? for La Milonga" program speaks eloquently of tango as a distinctive and often profound expressive realm. Larc? is fearless, venturing a daunting array of tango classics. ?the dancers adroitly summarize the range of tango style, from intense? to flamboyant. ? Lewis Segal, Staff writer, Los Angeles Times, California, USA The R?mulo Larrea Tango Ensemble's follow up performance of their new show, Tango First Century, ?provided the audience with an equally enchanting evening of tango song, dance and musical mastery? female vocalist Ver?nica Larc's glittering voice seemed itself sufficiently shining? an on stage presence as commanding as her superbly profound voice, Larc seemed at home on the stage?. The addition of three strong, professional tango dance couples both complimented the ensemble and spoke for itself, bringing audience enthusiasm to new heights each time they glided smoothly onto the scene. .......

Tango First Century highlights Paris in the roaring twenties, the unforgettable Carlos Gardel, the golden age of tango in the 1940s, and the contemporary tango of Astor Piazzolla. Romulo Larrea's ensemble, formed in 1990, provides the backbone for this breathtaking production, performing a vast tango repertoire using an unorthodox combination of traditional tango trio (bandoneon, piano and double bass) and classical quartet (two violins, viola and cello).

Stockholm City International Festival 2009 - 28 July to 2 August = = ======================================================================== Tango 59? Stockholm City has a reputation of being one of the world's best tango festivals, featuring exceptional teachers, a very friendly and relaxed atmosphere and the possibility literally to dance around the clock, with ten milongas ? and after-parties on top of that. If you are a tangoholic, this is the summer festival for you. Social dancing is always at the very heart of Tango 59?. And we pride ourselves on the flow on the dance floor, which many people have discovered is remarkably smooth and calm, yet dynamic and alert. Many of Europe's best dancers return to Stockholm each year to be a part of it. We're also the only European festival at which the legendary Buenos Aires DJ Mario Orlando has ever agreed to play. We are very proud and extremely pleased to present Mario Orlando to the Tango 59? audience once more - his contribution to the living dynamic of the social dance floor is immense. This year, for the first time ever, Mario will conduct a DJ seminar to share those gems of knowledge garnered during decades of DJing in Buenos Aires. Don't miss it, it's the chance of a life-time. Tango 59? Stockholm City International Festival 2009 will take place between Tuesday 28 July and Sunday 2 August. Booking is open now - but don't wait too long with your reservations. Welcome to join us for a great festival of tango! Teachers - Sebasti?n Arce & Mariana Montes Diego "El P?jaro" Riemer & Maria Bel?n Giachello Fernando Galera & Vilma Vega Gunilla Ryd?n & Henrik Uldall DJs - Mario Orlando Bachar Bitar Riku Kotiranta Orchestra - Mala Pinta But of course there's also classes and workshops. Unlike other large festivals ? for Tango 59? is a large festival ? the teaching groups are smaller than usual. At Tango 59?, all package groups consist of a maximum of 12 couples ? so that the teachers will have time to attend to you personally. Also, our packages allow you to study with the same teachers during multiple sessions during the festival. And of course, you can choose which teachers you want to study with. It's entirely up to you. We also offer workshops with all our teachers, should you want to study a particular aspect of tango that interests you. Even the workshop groups are smaller than at other festivals. A maximum of 15 couples per workshop allows direct student/teacher interaction.

Susana Miller will be back in Chicago this year for another series of workshops the weekend of June 6 and 7. We have structured the classes this year for the intermediate and advanced dancer. There will be limited enrollment and individuals with partners will have priority. Others can sign up as an individual if they take the full 6 class package which includes the Saturday milonga, or purchase a full day pass. We will attempt to gender balance the enrollment so that you can find a partner during the workshops. People that sign up for an individual class will need to sign up with a partner. SUSANA MILLER BIO. Susana Miller is the most prominent teacher in the world today of the "milonguero" style of tango or what Argentines call "apilado." This style is danced in the crowded clubs of central Buenos Aires. It is a strictly social style that emphasizes musicality and the connection between partners. Susana has researched and studied the dancing of the older milongueros, each of whom has created their own unique style of tango. She has been able to decipher their distinct vocabularies and choreographic combinations, and is gifted in her ability to convey these to students. Susana encourages students to employ more rhythm in their dance, to discover their own dance vocabularies, and to learn how to shape and shrink these in space. For women, she encourages active following, in which the woman interprets the messages that the leader's body and the spirit are sending. Clarin, the major Buenos Aires daily paper, called her one of the four most important influences on contemporary tango, along with Miguel Angel Zotto, Gustavo Naveira and Gerardo Portalea.
