[Tango-L] Why dancers should judge musicians in Tango not otherwise

[Igor Polk]

This is just my thought that dancers should be the ones to tell what music
is good for tango dancing and what is not.

Why. Obviously, most of us can not play nor to conduct an orchestra.
The difference is that I believe we feel the music much deeper than
musicians.
We feel the music with the whole of our body. Every part reverberates and
goes with rhythmical lines. Legs follow one rhythm, body - another one. One
step - is the whole fugure in tango. It means it has to be the whole musical
figure every beat. A new one every beat! And it takes energy to move ! Our
feeling is tailored to physical properties of our bodies and parts. Our
brain waves are aligned to the music AND to our body parts, our heart beats
in unison. We feel music with every cell.

And we do it tightly coupled together. We lead each other, and we play with
each other - to music.

We know much better what music is good what is not: our body tells us that
unmistakenly.

We know how to play along with music. We play music with our bodies. We do
act sometimes as members of the orchestra. And we do know how to compensate
for the bad music. But we do not want to. We want perfect creative unison
with musicians. We want music which is driving us toward creative frontiers
in our most complex dance.

I do not want to hurt any feeling, I only want musicians to consider what I
say. And follow the examples.

PS
I do not know how to highlight it more:
IT HAS TO BE THE WHOLE MUSICAL FIGURE EVERY BEAT PERIOD, A NEW ONE !
Because one step is a figure in tango.
