I TANGO!
Burlington, VT -- The Argentine Tango Society presents their esteemed production of I Tango on the Flynn MainStage Friday, October 12th at 8:00 pm. Following the performance will be a traditional Milonga Party where attendees have the opportunity to dance the tango on the Flynn stage and mingle with the dancers and musicians of the I Tango show.
With evocative dance, spectacular costumes, and spirited music by the Color Tango Orchestra, I Tango arrives in Burlington, Vermont in perfect tune with the magnificent foliage season that graces the Green Mountain State each fall. For leaf peepers and foliage enthusiasts, I Tango provides a lively, cultural, and artistic evening to compliment a fall getaway in Vermont.
World renowned artistic director, Alicia Cruzado, captures the essence of the tango and its origins in this uncompromising performance. “I am passionate about the tango as an art form and cultivate that passion in the dancers as they speak their own mysterious body language through my sometimes cutting edge interpretation,”
Internationally acclaimed maestro, Roberto Alvarez, directs the Color Tango Orchestra, which was formed in 1989 and parallels the style of the 1920’s expressive tango movement. Alvarez incorporates classical composers such as Pugliese and Piazzolla into more modern repertoire creating expressive maturity while conserving the aesthetical origins of tango. Color Tango, comprised of bandoneon, violin, viola, bass, keyboard, piano, and soloist, is the ultimate dance partner in the beautiful instrumentation of the tango.
