The approach of spring begins to enrich the calendar of tango events. From March to August is a series of marathons, parties and festivals in our country and especially in the rest of Europe.
This leads me to reflect on this time of the tango scene in particular in Italy. These gains are still many events or to better put the question, people still want big festivals? My answer, betrayed by a deep love towards the meeting of considerable size, is yes. After participating in the Mantua Festival in December, an event that is moving towards the tenth edition, and having seen the nights filled with people, crowded classes, Once again I realize that people have a great desire to learn, to enjoy the performances, dancing with live music dl.
The phenomenon of globalization, tam tam Internet users who create Masonic appointments for the chosen few, the show unintentionally ironic tango next door, and other ephemeral social phenomena, leaving the time they find. That time can not erase a concert Alberto Podesta, the performance of the Sexteto Milonguero, Hyperion Ensemble or Orchestra Silencio. Internet in this sense is a real boon.
Become a whirling encyclopedia remember where to find the performance and Chicho Juana, to thrill to a waltz by Julio and Corina, rub his eyes to the virtuosity of Sebastian and Mariana, feel the uncontrollable desire to dance a milonga as Pablo and Noelia.
When I hear someone say that festivals are exceeded me laugh. I've seen and heard so much since 1997, the year that I approached this universe. I admit that it is increasingly difficult for the organizers build events of this magnitude, and always makes me more angry ignorance of people who do not know how much effort and money behind a success.
Maybe people come in and milonga is not aware of what it costs to service with a qualified lighting and equipment, unless you want to do the milonghetta the birthday of eighth grade. How much are the locations? But you want to put the indescribable sensation of dance in Syracuse Castle Maniace or Capri, the atmosphere of the Mediterranean, and enjoy the sunrise reflected on the sea?
I know that it costs less to organize the milonga in the garage ... and even then I did not want to see a plethora of dancers who do not submit monotonous emotions, according to a program cloned from blender Moulinex. 1/3 di volcadas, 1/3 di colgadas, 1/3 di canaro, 1/3 di donato…
Ma quando scovo negli occhi lucidi della gente la voglia di tango, nell’istante in cui è appena terminata l’esibizione di grandi coppie di artisti allora comprendo che c’è futuro per questo ballo sociale. Torino, Firenze, Mantova, Siracusa, Roma, Venezia, … lunga vita al tango.
