Dear list, I have a friend visiting from US and have this question for you. Could someone please inform me about if there are any Argentine Tango festivals or workshops to visit in Europe - the closer to Sweden the better - in the period 25 May to 9 June 1999? Also larger milongas or similar arrangements would be interesting. Sincerely yours, Anders Torne world traveller with AT passion

Date: Wed, 21 Apr 1999 07:53:25 EDT From: Michele Benigno <Mexben @AOL.COM> Subject: Bs As classes Dear Tangueros/Tangueras, For those of you travelling to Buenos Aires soon and interested in learning Argentine Folklore dances (chacarera, gato, chamame, and zamba), Cynthia Fattore (541/362-9791) will begin a six week course beginning April 25th, 1999 at La Galeria, Boedo 722, 7:30-9:30pm (Tuesdays and Thursdays). Cynthia will teach a separate class dedicated to zamba after this six week course. Zamba is a much more difficult dance to learn and the learning goes quicker if the students are able to dance chacarera and gato. Cynthia is a professional dancer with a long list of professional credentials as a folklore dancer. She is a GREAT teacher and a beautiful dancer who LOVES this music and the dance.

It's on Teldec, 0630-13474-2. Most stores that carry this CD keep it in the classical section. I find that the music on the CD has a beautiful lyrical quality. I would enjoy dancing to several of the selections on occasion, but the recording does not have the strong dance beat that characterizes the music most frequently used for dancing. --Steve de Tejas


Date: Wed, 21 Apr 1999 10:05:15 -0500 From: Stephen P Brown <Stephen.P.Brown @DAL.FRB.ORG> Subject: Re: "Forever Tango" Video & CDs Larry de Los Angeles wrote: >Speaking of music, no one has yet commented about the two >"Forever Tango" CDs. I have them & they are absolutely terrific. >About them I have no reservations whatsoever. I agree that the two CD set of music from Forever Tango is well recorded and well played, and nearly all the pieces have a strong dance beat. Seems ideal for playing at a milonga, but most of the songs are taken at a faster tempo than similar recordings by orchestras from the golden age--which in my opinion makes them poorly suited for social dance. Until I saw the video, I thought the music on the CDs was played at a fast tempo to make it more suitable for show dancing. The music on the video is played at a noticably slower tempo, however. --Steve de Tejas

I just started tango 6 months ago, do it a couple of times a week and now my feet hurt constantly especially on the balls of my feet. I have never had feet problems before. Also there have been several comments lately about shoes and a few women have remarked that" Flabella really knows where to put the heel" on a woman's shoe. Could someone enlighten me as to what this means? Colette Jacquet _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!? Get your free @yahoo.com address at http://mail.yahoo.com

At the bottom of the ad is a note saying if you want more information about Trapiche and to learn the tango, visit us at <www.trapichewines.com> While the wines claim to be Argentine the source for the instructions regarding the Tango seems to be ballroom dancing. Maybe others on the list could check it out and make a more informed comment or two on the Tango information that is found on the site. Jim Murphy

Date: Wed, 21 Apr 1999 12:08:32 -0700 From: DIANE CLARK <CLARK @LDBB.COM> Subject: sore tango feet -Reply Colette, I suspect the "balls" of your feet are hurting because you are putting all your weight in the metatarsal of your foot. You are probably shifting all of your weight to the front of your shoe. This can build up pressure, especially if you are wearing heals. When my metatarsal of my foot feels sore, I begin to concentrate in placing my weight more evenly in my shoe. In other words, think of walking naturally. You wouldn't place all your weight forward in your shoe, so this is the crucial point: You need to be able to place weight evenly through the whole foot, including the heel. For me, a good tango heel is absolutely straight, with no cut or angling inward or on a slant. This might give a graceful line, but standing on such a heel I feel like I am going to tip over, or lose my balance. The weight in such a slanted or cut heel is driven forward, so it's as if the heel is useless. I cannot put my weight on it. Also, I find a good tango heel is thicker or broader to give me the structure and base of support I need. This is what works for me. Feet are so individual. I have salsa shoes and tango shoes. The tango shoes are patent leather and have stretched with no support. Patent leather and suede stretch, so I would suggest soft leather. Lately, I am wearing a pair of T-strap salsa shoes. The heels are a little thin, but the heeel is "placed right". I suggest you find a local shoemaker with shoes in hand that you find comfortable. Sometimes it could be the heel of one shoe and the body of another. Just think of elements that work in your normal heel-wearing and make the adjustments in a thicker, straight heel. Anyway, this is what works for me. I hope it's of help. Diane I hope this helps.

Date: Wed, 21 Apr 1999 17:11:24 -0400 From: Joseph Arbena <jose @CLEMSON.EDU> Subject: Re: Ad for Tango Info in Wine Ad in New Yorker Magazine The tango material may be pathetic, but Trapiche wines are generally quite good in the mid-price range. If the meal is beef, Argentine or otherwise, I especially enjoy the Malbec, a hearty full-bodied tinto. Along that line, you might wish to check out the May/June 1999 issue of 'Saveur', a slick cuisine mag. There is a lengthy article on Argentine food and drink, with recipes and photos, and some enjoyable local color. >X-Time: <199904211842.OAA18673> >X-Comment: mitvma.mit.edu: Mail was sent by mainserver.iucnus.org >X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.1960.3) >Date: Wed, 21 Apr 1999 14:34:20 -0400 >Reply-To: Fernandez Eduardo <efernandez @IUCNUS.ORG> >Sender: Discussion of Any Aspect of the Argentine Tango > <TANGO-L @MITVMA.MIT.EDU> >From: Fernandez Eduardo <efernandez @IUCNUS.ORG> >Subject: Re: Ad for Tango Info in Wine Ad in New Yorker Magazine >Comments: To: James Murphy <cmurf @WORLDNET.ATT.NET> >To: TANGO-L @MITVMA.MIT.EDU > >Amazing...It seams that all about tango coming "officially" from Argentina >is pathetic. > >Same happens with the "efforts" of the Argentinean Embassy in Washington in >trying to promote the tango... > >Hope tango lovers will not take this kind of things like the authentic tango >danced by the people of Buenos Aires. > >Eduardo > > > >> -----Original Message----- >> From: James Murphy [SMTP:cmurf @WORLDNET.ATT.NET] >> Sent: Wednesday, April 21, 1999 9:21 AM >> To: TANGO-L @MITVMA.MIT.EDU >> Subject: Ad for Tango Info in Wine Ad in New Yorker Magazine >> >> The April 26 & May 3, 1999 issue of The New Yorker magazine has an ad >> between pages 16 and 17 for some Argentine Wines.
