Phil:
I couldn't agree with you more. As a fellow musician who both reads music
well, but also can perform"by ear", I think your analogy could not have been
better. For the many who can't successfully jot down notes of what they've
learned, I have no argument; it's damned difficult to get it all down in a
sufficiently precise way to understand it weeks later. However, if you can
do it, I have found it highly valuable, even though it's admittedly only a
small portion of the task of actually dancing well. I.e., it's just a
building block on which to practice the more important elements of feel and
sensitivity.
However, I strongly believe that a solid grasp of a variety of small
patterns can greatly enhance your pleasure when you add to that the most
important elements of feel, posture, and sensitivity.

Subject: Re: Events in Clubs/bars.
Peter,
There's a gentleman here in downtown Sacramento, name of Georgio (?),
that lets us dance free in his place, Paris Tavern, Tuesday nights. It
was his idea; he's Argentine, and misses the tango.
Our dancers don't drink much, however, so from our side, we try to buy
sodas and things to support him. He's also started bringing food
(sandwiches) that we can buy.
If you can find a way to protect the livelihood, the income, of the
bar owner, I think you have a better chance of success.

Subject: News from New York
Baila Tango s first Milonga Argentine Tango a la Turca (March 6th) was a big
success. Almost 380 people attended the event with 160 of them taking the
beginners lesson. What a nice shot in the arm for the Tango community in New
York. Although we were expecting a nice size crowd, 380 was surprising.
Despite the small problems -we run out of wine too fast, may be the Turkish
wine we served was too good :) and we forgot to make the short speech about
the history of Tango in Turkey and the Ottoman empire era - most everyone had
a great time with guest performers from Turkey; Tanju & Tuba, and our very
best Metin & Rebecca. When four belly dancers , thanks to our friend Hamza
from Boston who found these very talented and gorgeous women, took the stage
with delightful numbers we had a night to be remembered.
I would like to thank everyone who came and shared the passion of Tango with
us, especially those who crossed the state and the country borders for this
event.
The Baila Tango milongas will continue regularly (with surprises) every
Saturday at Ballroom on Fifth (319 5th Ave at 32nd Street) for $10, with a
free beginners lesson at 8:30PM.
Thanks
Jak Karako
Jkarako @bailatango.com
We have a new web site www.BailaTango.com In a week or so you may be able to
find out about us and our events and even some videos & pictures from our
nights.

Subject: Re: Events in Clubs/bars.
Given that a lot of dancers don't seem to drink much (at least when out
dancing) and the proliferation of coffee houses/bars (in US cities at
least), does the coffee house represent another possible venue for these
types of informal events?
It probably wouldn't go over in the big chain places, but there seem to be
a lot of independent coffee bars that could use a boost in clientele,
especially in off-peak hrs. The independents seem more likely to be in
older, rehabbed spaces, which are often roomier & have wood floors, too.

I myself started Tango Cleveland in a bar. After all tango belongs there.
I tried a Ballroom dance studio but found the rent kind of high, and the
people there want to learn all the ballroom dances, not just Argentine Tango.
Whereas a bar just might give you 1/2 of the door. Why pay rent, when you can
make money. The bar loves more people coming to the establishment.
It also gives you more exposure to people who other wise not see tango.

Hi all,
The list has grown by about 250 subscribers since the Lyrics Page was

There you you can find tango songs translated into English.=20

Those of you who understand Spanish may take it for granted. For some of =

linguistically-impaired gringos, it's a new experience.
Since its inception a little over a year ago, the lyrics collection has
grown to 37 songs. For a taste of what's there, I'm tagging the most rece=

addition to the list to the end of this message. You'll enjoy the
presentation on the website much more, though. Look for your favorite son=

Doubt of your absence and of my blame,

Now I don't dream that you will return
to the failure of my life,
nor that in your heart,
You would have the urge to leave.
I only wish that if you are also
on the cross of abandonment,
You will know how to forget me in your mercy...
So, look at what I am.
Pena de tu ausencia sin retorno,

Pena de escuchar en mi abandono,
voces que me acusan al llegar.
Dolor amigo de estar con tu sombra,
remordimiento de saberte buena.
Dolor lejano de o=EDr que te nombran,
las voces muertas del ayer feliz.
Sorrow of your absence without return,
sorrow of knowing that you won't come back,
Sorrow of hearing in my abandonment,
voices that accuse me when they arrive.
Friendly pain of existing with your shadow,
regret of knowing you are good.
Distant pain of hearing the dead voices,
of yesterday's happiness that name you.
Yo no s=E9 si vivir=E1s feliz

Subject: Re: Tango Bars// a woman's view
that's a good point -
also the exposure to public scrutiny bears some consideration...
a couple of years ago there were some who wanted to take the
private party dances out to do a round of the bars in the evenings
- there were others - especially unaccompanied young women
who were not so keen on the gender politics of hanging around
in smoky bars in slinky dresses --
Weare still not in bars in the evenings - though there is a Sunday
Afternoon dance once a month in a middle bar (of three levels) that
can be screened as for a private party
it seems to me that a culture of gender safety and respect has
grown up in our tango community and it is very solid. That is very
important to me -- I am older now and have a regular partner - but
would still be somewhat shy if required to turn up on my own to
dance tango in a bar scene
While I am not opposed to people seeing me dance -- I can be
acutely uncomfortable with the feeling of being watched especially
in a pub
Women are taught that to attract sexual attention to themselves is
to put themselves at risk -- certainly how safe the women feel must
be one aspect of whether a tango community will grow. I know we
all must be able to be present in a very physically intimate space
without feeling invaded -- in order for our dance partnerings to be
respectful. It has been one of my greatest pleasures to find a trust
with many dance partners in this: to have some very subtle and
even sublime dances and then say thank you very much and walk
on freely to find another partner among the regular group of dancers.
I personally don't like the bar scene -- so I am happy for Tango dances
to happen in club rooms and studio/salons myself, It would really
depend on the bar I suppose........

faera

I did leave someone out. Apologies to my dear fried Joe DelGenio, who is
not on the Tango-List, and does not tango (he says he thinks he will when
he's 40). He was born porte=F1o, and has adopted this country as his home=
. He
visits his family in the Liniers (I hope I spelled it right), sector of
Buenos Aires, often, and it was he who brought me the CD from there with
the rendition of Abandono by Mercedes Simone (100 A=F1os de Tango, Voces
Femeninas, EMI - ODEON S.A.I.C.). When I told him of our Tanslation
Project, he asked me if it was ok if he would translate Mi Buenos Aires
Querido! I thought he would knock it off in a few minutes, but he agonize=
d
over the nuances for weeks, because he wanted to make every effort to
express the sentiments and emotions as they were intended by the poet.
You can find his heartfelt version on the Lyrics Page

Hey Global Tango List,
I'm fortunate enough to be traveling to Montreal on business March
25th through the 28th, and I want to take full advantage of the many
opportunities to dance tango this cosmopolitan city has to offer.
From the web sit, "www.tango.montreal.qc.ca", there are several
milongas and pracitcas listed Thursdays through Sundays. Some
listings are in French; some are in English.
I'm wondering which milongas and practicas would be the best for
this Anglo / Californian, who has enough trouble with American
English even more with Quebecois French, to attend?
Thanks,
David
