Bio:
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 djing 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 general public audience.
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 creator of prestigious Tango events,in North AmericaTango
Joven Festival 2006-2007, Chicago Tango Week 2008-2009, Miami Beach
Tango Marathon 2010 and Burak's Tango Week 2010.
He also co-founded the ARTango Center in Chicago.
Although he is based in Chicago, he frequently tours US and Canada for
teaching, djing and dancing.
