Nelson Tango

!Hola Milongueros!

Just to confirm as per the Tango Nelson website, the new times to tango at Cafe del Tango are now 8pm to 11pm!
every Saturday night and will be continuing as usual throughout the holiday period at Kush, 5 Church St. Nelson city

And on Saturday 24th December there will be a night of special music and celebration for Lorraine's birthday, with a mixture of classic tanda-style tango (as always!) plus salsa, bachata, merengue, reggae and who knows what else!

So if you are planning to come to Sunny Nelson during the holidays and have not made it yet to this casual intimate venue, do drop in to dance to some classic Tango music, enjoy a fine glass of wine or catch up over superb coffee or chili chocolate!! and maybe bring your non-tango friends too have a wee look-see to watch tangueros dancing the ultimate dance...but please warn them Tango can be highly addictive!!

For any first time visitors to Nelson, KUSH is at 5 Church Street which runs parallel with Trafalgar Street one block west of the Cathedral steps in the heart of Nelson

¡Bailamos muchos!
See you there!

"Cada momento que bailamos Tango añade una hora en nuestras vidas"

Tango Your Life –DOCUMENTARY FILM

Some of you may know Gyles who is from Auckland, who is amongst the people interviewed for this documentary...

Tango Your Life –DOCUMENTARY FILM

Hello,

My name is Chan Park in Buenos Aires. I am working on a documentary film project, whose title is “Tango Your Life.” I recently released its trailer and plan to release its complete version by early 2011.

I’m writing to request your cooperation to disseminate the information about the film. Could you kindly forward the message below to your friends in your tango community?

For your information, you can view the trailer at the following sites:

Sad days for tango in BaAs

On Thursday Tete Rusconi died in BA. He was considered by many as one of the finest vals dancers in the world.

Many Kiwi dancers will have met him or seen him dance on their travels to BA. It's a sad day.

From the Milongueando Team:

"A sad day to know we have lost a dear friend, Tete. We'll miss his genius on the dance floor, his enthusiasm, his passion, his boundless creativity. We'll be ever grateful for the legacy he leaves behind. Un fuerte abrazo, Tete. Te extrañamos!"

And on Saturday came the news that Osvaldo Zotto has passed away as well.

Tango gets cultural UN approval

The Tango has been declared part of the world's Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by the United Nations.
