As far as I know, there WILL BE one from November 27 through December 2 with classes, milongas, concerts, etc., as usual. The Festival is organized by Mr. Diego Rivarola. You can see and interview with the details at http://www.tangoshow.com (at the bottom of the page). Unfortunately, it is in Spanish.... Hope this helps to clarify, Regards


Original Message ----- From: Janis Kenyon <jantango @FEEDBACK.NET.AR> Sent: Tuesday, September 12, 2000 2:36 PM Subject: SA: September events in Buenos Aires The September issue (No. 115) of Buenos Aires Tango Tito Palumbo is concerned about the city government not organizing the third festival de tango this year. For the past two years, the government organized a full week of free tango concerts, milongas, and classes. Tito is soliciting help from readers to encourage the city to hold this event once again in December by writing Anibal Ibarra at gcba @buenosaires.gov.ar


Date: Sat, 16 Sep 2000 13:08:23 -0300 From: Janis Kenyon <jantango @FEEDBACK.NET.AR> Subject: SA: Study the music of tango in BsAs Vittorio Pujia will be presenting a music appreciation class on Thursdays at La Escuela Del Tango, San Jose 364, piso 3A, in Buenos Aires. He is a musician and dancer of tango who will help you to better understand the music. He gives private classes and can give an intensive seminar in four classes in a shorter time period for groups in English, French, Italian, and Spanish. I highly recommend him as a teacher, so if you will be coming to Buenos Aires, write him at vittoriopujia @hotmail.com Vittorio is also teaching a class about tango lyrics at Instituto del Sur, a school for foreigners learning Spanish. In each class, he gives the lyrics of a particular tango to the students. They listen to different versions. They work on the vocabulary. They discuss the tango culture, the history, important people and the artists. Finally, they sing the tango. www.delsur.com.ar info @delsur.com.ar Pichi Do-It-Yourself Tango Tour in Buenos Aires


Date: Sat, 16 Sep 2000 22:52:04 -0700 From: Linda Valentino <LindaValentino @PRODIGY.NET> Subject: NA-W: Update re Juan Carlos Copes in Los Angeles! REGISTRATION UPDATE: Juan Carlos Copes' class on Friday, September 22 in Los Angeles is SOLD OUT. However, there are still a few spaces left in the class on Tuesday, September 26. If you want to attend the Tuesday class, please call or e-mail ASAP to make sure that you are on the list. I cannot guarantee any space for people who show up at the door without a reservation. (And if you made a reservation for either night and find that you will be unable to attend, I would appreciate knowing so that I can give your space to someone else.) Once again, here are the details: THE LEGENDARY JUAN CARLOS COPES! Friday, September 22 (8 - 9:30 p.m.) & Tuesday, September 26, (8:15 - 9:45 p.m.); $30 per person, per class Academy 331 530 N. La Cienega (1/2 block south of Melrose) West Hollywood The Maestro makes a rare Los Angeles appearance to attend the "Dance on Film Awards," for which he is nominated for his choreography for Carlos Saura's Oscar-nominated film, "Tango" (he also co-starred). We are delighted that he has agreed to teach two classes for us. Maestro Copes is arguably the most famous tango performer in the world. He is also a remarkably beautiful social dancer, having learned his craft in the milongas of his youth. In our humble opinion, he possesses one of the most amazing upper bodies of any man in tango. Just to watch him is an invaluable learning experience. The maestro will focus on his special brand of technique and elegance for the social floor. Recently voted in a poll of more than 12,000 Buenos Aires residents as the greatest tango dancer of the 20th Century, Juan Carlos Copes is known as the father of performance tango or "tango ballet." His credits and awards as a professional dancer are too numerous to list, but he is perhaps best known in this country as the star and principal choreographer of "Tango Argentino." Through his many shows, movie and television performances, he has served as tango's ambassador to the world. He is truly one of Argentina's national treasures. Don't miss this rare opportunity to study with a living legend of tango! Juan Carlos Copes will also be our special guest at Salon Recuerdo on Thursday, September 21. Come and help us welcome the Maestro to Los Angeles--8 p.m. to midnight, Culver City Masonic Lodge, 9635 Venice Blvd. (between Overland and Main/Bagley). $10 per person includes dancing to the greatest orchestras of the "Golden Age of Tango" and refreshments For more information, see our website at www.apurotango.com, or call (323) 650-0509.
