  • Elements of Argentine Tango a Resource Manual for Dancers
    Elements of Argentine Tango A Resource Manual for Dancers http://abqtango.org 1 History of Argentine Tango by Mike Higgins When talking about the history of the Tango, the reader should consider that although there were many ‘influences’ in the creation and life of the Tango, it is very important not to assume that it was some form of linear development Whilst dances and music from around the world have had some influence, this rather detracts from the people who really created and evolved the Tango into its current form. These are the people of Buenos Aires, who in the bars, cafes and dance halls made the Tango, danced the Tango, lived, loved and occasionally died for the Tango. It is the voice of the streets of Buenos Aires. Any suggestion that they may be dancing some sort of second hand steps or regurgitating music taken from Europe or Africa must be rejected as some what insulting to all the great milongueros who have danced and innovated down though years. It is equally insulting to the great Tango maestros who have drawn on their own life experiences when composing music. Almost certainly, the most important factor in the evolution of the Tango was the influence brought in by the Habanera, created in Havana, Cuba, and also known as the Andalusian Tango. Unfortunately there is now insufficient information to assess exactly how this was originally danced. The Habanera was based on the concept of a ’walk’, the same as the Tango. At some point the Milonga and The Habanera were fused to form the embryonic version of the Tango.

    Policies for Tango Colorado DJs 1. Keep the Dancers Dancing The DJ’s primary job is to keep the dancers happy and dancing, selecting mixes that serve the community’s needs as directed by the Board of Directors. This means knowing the music and understanding the conventions for how to combine music for tandas. The quantity of music you have is secondary to the quality. We appreciate the many of you who continually work hard to improve your music selections. Please make sure that you can maintain flexibility in your tandas based on crowd participation for each tanda. We expect your focus to be on the dancers and though this does not mean you cannot dance on a night you are DJing, we strongly encourage careful attention to the crowd. Teaching lessons or having meetings during a Practica for which you are the DJ is discouraged. The board will continue to monitor DJs and feedback from dancers and reserves the right to schedule DJs accordingly via the DJ coordinator. The expectations for the music at a Practica are not the same as at a Milonga. The main focus should be to enhance retention of both new dancers and more experienced dancers and create and maintain good energy in the room and on the dance floor. 2. Tandas and Cortinas at Practicas DJ’s will play the following tanda structure during the practicas. Tango, Tango, Vals, Tango Tango Milonga. the exception of the first 30 minutes after the class, when only tangos with simple, strong rhythms should be played so that the beginners from the beginner lessons have a chance to practice more effectively.

Luego de analizar ciertos aspectos que caracterizan y rigen los procesos de patrimonialización contem- poráneos, relevamos las principales normativas y actividades culturales instituidas en torno al tango. Posteriormente, nos concentramos en el desarrollo de una sucesión de políticas públicas y actividades vinculadas a festivales y campeonatos de baile en la ciudad de Buenos Aires. Asimismo, exploramos las construcciones y los sentidos de “autenticidad” en distintas dimensiones culturales. Por un lado, nos enfocamos en el “turismo cultural” vinculado al tango en la ciudad, mientras que, por otro lado, analizamos los sentidos otorgados a las performances de tango-danza de salón en el contexto de los campeonatos ofi ciales.

    IF YOU LOVE ME STILL, WILL YOU LOVE ME MOVING? Tales from the Century Ballroom Illustrations by Willow Bader IF YOU LOVE ME STILL, WILL YOU LOVE ME MOVING? * Tales from the Century Ballroom Fiction by Robert Fulghum Art by Willow Bader Copyright © Robert L. Fulghum, 2013 Illustrations © Willow Bader, 2013 IF YOU LOVE ME STILL, WILL YOU LOVE ME MOVING? © Robert Fulghum 2013 2 A page from the diary of Marisol Machado: “There was a door in the room of Aristos’ life he had never opened. He knew it was there. But he assumed it was locked. He had never even tried the handle. But the door was not locked - only closed. One day he realized he was endlessly arranging and re-arranging the furniture and contents inside the room of his life. This could go on forever. If nothing changed, the words on his gravestone someday would say: Here Lies Aristos Joyce. Died of Boredom, Monotony, and Loneliness. That same day he thought he heard sounds on the other side of the door. A woman’s voice? And music playing for dancing? He thought he heard a knock on the door. He tried the handle. The door swung open. And there I was - Marisol Machado - in the Century Ballroom. Waiting to dance. He was afraid to walk through the door, and afraid not to. But he did. Aristos never went back through that door again. And forever after, he looked at doors differently. He tried the handle of any closed door he came to. As for me? I am also an opener of doors .

Root, Ph.D., Department of Music Akin Euba, Ph.D., Department of Music Andrew N. Weintraub, Ph.D., Department of Music Thesis Advisor ii Copyright by Dorcinda Celiena Knauth 2005 iii DISCOURSES OF AUTHENTICITY IN THE ARGENTINE TANGO COMMUNITY OF PITTSBURGH Dorcinda Celiena Knauth, M.A University of Pittsburgh, 2005 This thesis contributes to the body of scholarly literature concerning the globalization of tango, specifically its resurgence in the late twentieth century, by providing a case study of a tango community in the United States. In Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, dancers of Argentine social tango seek to understand the “essence” of tango, through literature, performance, and communication with other dancers. These efforts reveal much about themselves and the role that tango plays in their lives. This thesis examines the competing discourses of authenticity in Pittsburgh concerning the Argentine tango with regards to a divide in the tango community in 2002. Through ethnographic research, this thesis explores how dancers conceive of authenticity in their actions, according to venue, style, music and gender. Often, these perceptions are associated with Argentina as dancers imagine it, either in the past or in the present.
