Milongas/ Tango Calor .../ Classes
It's Milonga La Ideal week!
and for this, February, edition we have the excitement of a performance by Dante Culcuy and Chris Benson, of music chosen by the ever popular Oz as DJ, all with a very warm welcome to visitors and regulars alike.
Dante Culcuy is our well known, and good, neighbour, who with his Oxford Tango Academy has massively enhanced tango life over a wide area of England. He has performed in prestigious milongas in Buenos Aires and many International Tango Festivals; in 2015 he was a finalist in the World Tango Salon Championships in Buenos Aires. It is especially exciting to be welcoming him partnered with Chris Benson in her debut performance at Warwick SPACE. Chris is a teacher at LP Tango Academy in London.
We are also very happy to have Özgür Aydın once again as guest DJ. He has DJ'd in Berlin, Istanbul, the Dublin Festival, and many other places across Europe. His profound interest in the classical tango orchestras and the musicality of dancing to them pervades his choice of music. It will be a good evening!
There will be some nibbles and some wine for early arrivers, but BYOB if you wish.
