[Tango-L] Music preferences

[Ilene Marder]

Many many leaders in NY and elsewhereprefer to dance  to instrumental 
music and openly express a dislike for vocals. I have heard this many 
times thru the years of DJing.... these are also very good, eperienced 
leaders, not  just beginners. They either say the melody throws them 
off, or that they don't like that they can't understand the lyrics and a 
few have said they canlt stand the "sniffling and whiny" quality of some 
vocal!!!
I disagree completely...but that's what I have experienced.
I think they are in the minority!

My interest with lyrics started with the movie Tango by Carlos Sauros, specifically the scene of two singers performing Flores de alma at a dance rehearsal.  I just really enjoyed the romantic quality the pair brought to the piece, which brought it to life.
