Subject: Tango Awareness
It's not quite true, as they say here in Hollywood, that "There's GOOD
publicity, and there's NO publicity." But there's a lot of truth in
it. I'm perfectly happy that Pr. Charles showed more verve than
virtuosity.
Speaking of tango awareness, here are two more minor items -- rather
like two drops in an ever-increasing rivulet.
The latest science-fiction novel (title forgotten) by Poul Anderson, one
of the elder statesmen in the field & still very prolific & popular, has
a mention of tango in it. It seems a multinational crew of a multiyear
mission in space a couple of centuries from now is exploring its ethnic
roots as one of several ways to avoid boredom. The Paraguayan captain's
contribution is to relearn the tango he learned when young and teach it
to others. It's not called the Argentine tango, nor is it described.
One of the documentaries nominated for an Oscar is "Dancemaker," which
is playing in L.A. It's about famous choreographer Paul Taylor. It
includes filming of him & his dancers creating a piece done to an Astor
Piazzolla work. It's certainly not tango dancing, but it is a very
interesting interpretation of a tango.

Veterans Hall, 3491 Mt. Diablo Blvd.), 3 to 6 PM. Call to register and get $5

Subject: Tango Congress of Miami Beach April 4th to 10th, 1999 (NFI)
Jorge Nel and Marta, his lovely partner, advise me that Tangueros & Tangueras
are coming from all over the world to attend this coming Tango Congress
(April 4th through 10th, 1999) at the Radisson Deauville Resort in Miami
Beach, Florida.
The list shows registrants from Japan, Mexico, Costa Rica, Chile, England,
Germany,
Canada, Switzerland and of course from the USA. Enrollment has been going
well.
Jorge says he is expecting to have 150 Tango enthusiasts by the time the
workshops and milongas begin April 4th, 1999.
Jorge wishes to inform you all that the $79 special rate per day at the
Radisson Hotel will hold this low price only until March 25th. On the 26th
the regular daily rate of $140 will resume. If you wait until the last minute
you will face that increased rate which might be a disappointment to you and
perhaps more than your budget can take. Reserve your hotel accommodations as
soon as possible. The Hotel # is (305) 865-8511. Do not allow procrastination
to cost you an extra $61 per day for your hotel stay.
If you need any assistance getting your air line tickets call Jorge for help.
If for some reason you can not attend the entire week of the Congress call
Jorge for help. He will make every effort to accommodate you! If you can only
attend a few selected days, phone him so he can assist you in getting the most
for your money, and also be prepared for your abbreviated schedule.
If you are curious about the curriculum or the teachers who will be presenting
the work shops call Jorge. He will inform you as to what you can expect.
If you have some questions concerning the Milongas, the music, or anything
that pertains to this dynamite Tango Congress, call Jorge.
Time is running out! The congress registration fee is $550.....pay by credit
card if you choose to. Call Jorge.
Phone Jorge or Marta at (305) 446-9444 or Fax (305)447-4534 or E-mail

The sun is shining here in Florida and the beaches are loaded with beautiful
sun seekers in bikini bathing suits. Make your Florida visit a real
vacation. Come early or stay later. Don't forget your dance shoes. Don't stay
home and be left out in the cold. Let this be an event to remember. Meet
old friends! Make new acquaintances! Feel the passion of the Tango! Come
and learn new ideas; new approaches; get enlightened and inspired by Tango
Masters who are among the best in the Tango World. Being in the same room
with Armando & Daniela improves my Tango. The Dinzels, Osvaldo Zotto &
Lorena, Alicia & Carlos (of Forever Tango) , Gloria & Eduardo. Wow! My cup
runneth over.!
There is a little note in my Congress flyer that says ...
Special Guest "Carlos Gavito". That's icing on the cake.
Sincerely,
Arturo
