[TANGO-L] Double-Concert "Color Tango" & "Sexteto Canyengue" during TangoMagia V in Amsterdam on dec. 29th, 2002

[Chris Luethen <christian.luethen @gmx.net>]

Hola!

As many of you know: On december 29th, 2002 "Color Tango" from Buenos
Aires and "Sexteto Canyengue" from the Netherlands were performing
together an "Homage to Osvaldo Pugliese" on the occasion of the
"TangoMagia V"-Festival in Amsterdam. [official website:
http://www.tangomagia.com/] Also Osvaldo Pugliese's widow was
present, speaking to us!

"Sexteto Canyengue" opened the evening with a solo-set. Then "Color
Tango" took over with another solo set. After the interval "Color
Tango" played again for us before the big moment arrived: "Color
Tango" and "Sexteto Canyenue" were forming one "Orqesta tipica" - in
memoriam to Osvaldo Pugliese! At the end of the concert even former
2nd Bandoneon-player of "Sexteto Canyengue" joined: 5 bandoneons, 4
Violins, 2 double-basses, 2 pianos live on stage!

"La Yumba", even more powerfull as allways, formed the end of the
concert ... followed by standing ovations!

It was a concert not to forget!

For those of you who could attend as well for those of the big
international tango crowd who came over to the Netherlands for the
annual tango festival season "in between the year's" I'd like to
share some of my photographic memories. I've upload some photographs
of this unforgetable night to my website. You can find them in the
"Tango Traveller" section filed under "Amsterdam". The website's

I hope you enjoy!

Best wishes for the new (tango) year to all of you!
Christian


P.S.: I am neither a professional tango person nor a professional
photographer. Tango is my hobby, no more. Therefore do not expect too
much. But if you'd like to comment: Please do so. I'd appreciate any
input.
