From its birth in the 1880s in the sIums of Buenos Aires, The tango reached its height of international popularity between the two WorId Wars. After a resurgence in the 1950s, newer dances pushed it into temporary obscurity. With the raging success of "Tango Argentino" on Broadway in 1985, the tango is hot again.
THE ORIGlNS
Its origins remain a mystery. The Myth brings together the immigrants from Europe, together with the men of the port (portenos) and the gauchos. These blended with the Andalusian tango and the Cuban habanera, whiIe borrowing the musical syncopation of the "milonga" gaucho dance, and the rhythms of the African "candombe" beat from the drums of bIack slaves. The stylized stories teIl of soIitude and longing, of lost Iove, unrequited Iove and tomorrow's Iove, of homesickness and hardship.
THE SENSUALITY
The tango comes from a peopIe who are not afraid to touch. ln a kicking and whirling mosaic of intricateIy intertwined arms and legs, the men and the women entice each other with passion and sensuality. The mood is created and enhanced by the music, while unrestrained emotions are expressed by movement.
Oscar Araiz, known for his work with the Joffrey BaIIet and the National BaIIet of Canada, has assembIed 28 dancers from the famous Geneva Grand Theatre BalIet and choreographed this spectacular fuIl-Iength show. lt highIights the sociaI and anecdotal aspects of tango in a series of musical dance vignettes. |
