View 2009 CMS Argentine Tango Institute: Music Study, July, Buenos Aires on DanceWeb

The CMS Tango Institute will combine tango scholarly studies with practical musical and cultural experiences, and provide participants with an authentic and holistic tango experience in the city of the art form s birth, Buenos Aires. The instrumental music portion of the Institute is under the direction of Sonia Possetti (pianist, composer, arranger) and Damian Bolot¡n (violinist, composer, and arranger), who were recently featured during the 10th Tango Festival in Buenos Aires on August 23, 2008 with their own major concert performance. The academic studies portion of the Institute will be conducted by Institute Director, Kristin Wendland.

The intensive 2-week program of study of tango music will integrate tango history, theory, practice, and culture, appealing to scholars and musicians who are interested in interdisciplinary studies, world music, and popular urban forms. It is designed for trained and experienced musicians who want to go to the source of the tango genre and have an authentic experience. The Institute will be limited to 12 participants (2 pianists, 2 bandoneonists, 4 violinists, 1 violist, 1 cellist, and 2 bassists) grouped into three ensembles: two piano quartets (violin, bass, bandoneon, and piano), and one standard string quartet.

The practical, scholarly, and cultural aspects of the Institute also seek to promote on-going connections between North and South American musicians who study, write, and play tango music. We seek to encourage a professional and cultural exchange of musical knowledge and skills as well as friendship and camaraderie between musicians.

Danube Tango Meeting - Budapest April / May 2009

Edited: Mon, 16 Mar 2009

Dear All,

Let me invite you to Budapest, Hungary to the very first meeting of Central European tangueros.

The Central Europe has a different taste to it. If you have ever been to Prague, Vienna, Ljubljana or any other historical city of this region, you will know what I mean. Our history, our culture, our foods, our thinking, and our way of life are all so typical of Central Eastern Europe. I do believe that our Argentine tango is also typical and has a special taste to it. Come and discover it in Budapest!

You will find superb teachers, orchestras and DJs - all from this region - fantastic venues, and last but not least a very friendly tango community.

Please check our homepage for details:

Hope to see you in Budapest!
