Tango News - An Update
|
"Romance
is in the Air" -- at least, that is what
Scotts Shopping Centre wanted you to think last Saturday
13/10, as they staged a promotion with radio DJs. That
gave tangueros Louis, Candide, Karen, and Zie their
chance to shine in public. Great job! |

The
evening ended with a wonderful Milonga at Shrooms upstairs
for 50 beautiful dressed-up people, more than half of whom
are new.
Minor hiccups about the loudspeakers aside, this is a lovely
venue that we plan to come back regularly.
|
While on
the subject of Romance: People often equate tango with
romance. But is tango music really romantic? The
answer is yes, but with an edge. Tango is actually
more about Passion
than Romance.
|
Most
tango lyrics talk about lost love, secret longing, betrayal,
loneliness, commitment, taking a gambler's chance, etc.
For instance, "Piensalo Bien" (think carefully)
talks about taking the plunge into a relationship; La
Cumparsita (little marching band) is about someone
languishing for a lost love. The vals
"Flores del Alma" (Flowers from the soul) sings of
leaving your partner for a new love. "Mano a Mano"
(we're even) taunts a lover after the break-up.
|
In other
words, they are dealing, not with the fairy tale of romance
-- boy meets girl and lives happily ever after -- but with
the very grown-up reality of finding, not finding, losing,
and sustaining love in the Real World.
