Sermon on the Presidenta Cristina K.

Buenos Aires, June 18, 2008

I arrive worrying news from Buenos Aires. The agricultural workers are in revolt because the government has increased taxes. Down in the street to protest, blocking lines of communication now 90 days. Banks do not lend, the dollar falls. Cristina Kirschner, la Presidenta, appears to have underestimated the problem and has not delivered so far. 15 am local time, that is, shortly, Cristina K. speak to the people of Argentina. It 'been forced to do so because it seems that things degenerate. Try to hear the speech via internet, maybe on the radio.

Roberta, La Presidenta Vera!

El lenguaje del tango (dedicated to Ana Maria)

Buenos Aires, April 23, 2008

Baires session from so many good memories remain, like the smiling faces of Nora, of Analia, Virginia and razor sharp images stands out among all the Ana Maria Shapira.
As I have closely in his living room! Trying to understand if while dancing with Daniele "went" well or badly, while saying 'no, no, estas afuera de la musica! "" No te Apure! "And about every 10 minutes" costillas las arriba! "Or" pero no esto es otro paso chino. "
Ana Maria has catapulted us into his world and us reeling in his special language, a language rich and complex: the structure of the music and ironic and its vital Wordplay absolutely spontaneous and worthy of a linguist consumed.
So I would write a short summary of words that in this period, the godmother of Tangoblivion has spread between Venice (at the stage just conluso) and Baires:
1 desaforado es. "Bailar como una desaforado" which translate "dance like a possessed by the devil"
2 estrafalario es. "No haga estrafalarios" which translate "do not mess"
3 estrambotico es. "Esto es un poco bien pero estrambotico" translate that "this is well strambo but I do pass"
4 recul es "no recul" which translate "not recoil" or go back to ass
5 retovar that translate escape back to retire

The translations are very liberal and corrections well accepted, hoping to not having a chance or CHANCHADA as taught us to say our teacher in front of a cabaret of pastries!
I take this opportunity to Ana to send warm greetings to all of us and we hope soon to learn new words of the beautiful language of the tango!

Sara

Emergency smoke in Buenos Aires

Buenos Aires, April 18, 2008

I receive this message and the public:
"Cara Loredana [editor's note Loredana Rabellino, Head Projects Mais]
I do not know if the Italian media they're talking about, but these days we are living here a true ecological tragedy and now it seems the worst day.
In practice this is happening even here there is a bad habit on the part of peasants and farmers burn the stubble of setting fire to fields. For some circumstances sfavolevoli weather (high pressure, no wind and no rain) was formed by several days a huge hood of black smoke that often remains suspended at very low altitude over the city of Buenos Aires and by yesterday it was extended in neighboring Uruguay.
With the help of the fog there were tremendous traffic accidents with dozens of deaths and now the motorways and main roads leading to the capital were stopped because the view is bad.
There are also problems for flights, under these conditions we can not land the aircraft fire and civil protection can not act to quell the fire. This morning it is estimated that are burning now out of control, about 700,000 hectares of land.
The air is unbreathable, you must stay inside the house, but even so the smoke is everywhere.
People suffering from asthma and respiratory problems are crazy. For the moment I am fine even if with breathing discomfort. For Viviana [editor's note Viviana Ledesma, Project Contact Mais Claypole - Argentina] is much worse because of asthma suffers for you and therefore the situation is complicated.
Here the news does not speak for other (just think that still have not said who won the elections in Italy ...!).
In practice you are not doing anything, it is hoped that rain in order to solve the problem, but the forecast for the next few days announce the rain. Even here, as we, hopefully always in the right star ...
Hello, Giulio "

Cuentos de Aires n.6

Buenos Aires, April 1, 2008

In the early twentieth salsa criolla and paseo japones.

On the morning of Saturday and 'dedicated to the visit of Malba (Museum of Latin American Art of Buenos Aires).

The building, Avenida del Libertador, is located near the giant pink steel placed on a green lawn and a gift of "we do not yet know who" the city '. A photosensitive mechanism governing the opening and closing, or rather they regulated. The taxi driver explains that some time ago and it 'route and as repair costs much remains always open "well" I say, "less evil that has' broken while he was open!" Though lean and' always a consolation. At night, light shines red and is very suggestive.

The building that houses the Malba and 'one of the few examples of modern architecture of quality' and 'considered by all a pearl of the city'.

In fact, this is a beautiful museum, pleasant to visit and very functional.

It looks at the MACBA in Barcelona with a vertical path that offers a panoramic glass roof to the wall and three floors of spaces for temporary exhibitions and permanent. To tell the truth 'that we enjoy most'.

With regard to the permanent collection the thing that surprised more 'and' find a large number of works that trace the routes of the early twentieth artististici European flavor with a decidedly "Criollo". There are picassiani cubism and testing futuristic, paintings that seem made by Depero on vacation and so on.

Among the many artists offered us attract those of the artist Xul Solar, exponent of the current neocriollista:

xdrago1927.jpg

Kandinsky works seem a bit more 'figurative and indigenous people.

At a temporary plan, retraces the steps of artistic un'autrice very interesting: Do Amaral Tarsila

malba10gr.jpg

You say what could have been his reference in this work which marks the most 'top of his research.

A little more 'in the' ...

Imagine a Japanese garden in the heart of Palermo, we enter and we found acceptable by streams flowing under bridges of red wood, stone sculptures, empty corners of a bell gongs and many many giant trout that ingurgitano the food offered in profusion by children festive.

Daniele fears that falls in water and becomes my turn devoured by pescioni.

On the banks overlooking ducks Japanese super palmate claiming that their food ration, Daniele ago friendship with the most 'beautiful, of course!

The top floor of a pavilion there was a test of Aikido, we pause to watch, Daniele says that resembles the tango, sara '... but in fact' does not have all the wrongs.

It is to always work in pairs and use of energy, you fight but also a little dance and philosophy behind the movement has several points of contact with our favorite dance! Two beautiful girls of 5 years while handling the stick with great concentration.

Conclusion:

the beautiful day ends in a cozy house full of friends at Villa Urquiza, we dine by Juan, who nourishes us with sfornato paella and bread from his hands. The company, all of milonguero verdadera, makes a great show that culminates in a better defined as a karaoke song to go on for about 3 hours in which Daniel also makes its upper part and takes the name of the song Italian with simultaneous translation.

The climax is reached when we ask a Tango. This is Nostalgia from the text sad and melting.

The proggramma karaoke every song to the proposed video pictures. These landscapes tourist seaside residence and so on.

When to pass the word appears ANGUSTIA family photos on bagnasciuga with dad Panzano awaiting pargoli builders of sand castles.

Towards following: NOSTALGIA crowd with the soft dolls pelouche.

Laughter a voluntary '! and a proposal to include cotanta contemporary art in Malba.

Abrazos by Sara and Daniele

Cuentos de Aires n.5

Buenos Aires, March 27, 2008

Leaking of Tango, and moral comparisons end.

I ask publicly apologize to Sara.

I had seen the advertisement 'of a course at a pace that I was interested. It seemed a class of technique that I would finally revealed the secrets of this step. Do not reveal 'that step is, no name and place, only our adventure.

One afternoon in Buenos Aires waiting for the class in question. The presence of many foreigners pending the lesson should have already 'suspicious but, as I am optimistic, I am not worried.

We enter the hall and the "Maestro" invites us to dance a tango for heating.

Sara embrace intimately known but that everything around us are embracing the much more 'wide. The music and 'show from the start and pirouettes. Nothing wrong if they are talented dancers, some 'less when beginners with a wealth of steps Tanguera done very imaginative but not yet very refined.

We begin to feel somewhat 'embarrassed but we go forward.

Currency pairs.

Sara abandonment in the hands of an American who had seen dancing with companion nor I seemed evil. I had not considered the fact that the sequences that did had learned together without need 'for adequate marcas.

I put in a corner and searches.

The participants of the course are evident in the sovraeccitazione. Concentarti more 'step in trying to remember that the meaning of what they're doing.

Respect other dancers moves into the background compared to their achievement performance.

Sara and 'in obvious trouble'. The non marking the steps but expects she will run anyway. This is very choreographic steps.

Seems to see a patrol of Kung Fu: I am worried but resists.

The Tango ends, Sara is approaching crestfallen but the urges to resist.

The "Master" begins the lesson.

I expect that we reveal the mysteries of this step through a series of exercises on balance and posture, synchronization of the legs and arms instead the "Maestro" offers just a hallucinatory sequence.

Pirouettes from blender to speed 'with maximum "sguaratada" the dancer poor record of launching the hammer.

The sequence ends with a cherry on the cake. The ballerina who try to follow the "Maestro" was about to fall must also bear his comment: "less evil and you're dancing with a Master !!!".

Sara and I will look basiti. My right hand is horizontal, while the beats on the left palm in vertical and 'signal leakage.

Expect that the victims of the "Maestro" is accoppino to generate human incidents and quickly cut the rope.

Two simple points.

1) if a "Maestro" offers a clear sequence of degree of difficulty 'are expected to know it well, at least it.

2) the sequence that aims to be among the participants after the course.

If you are missing these two simple conditions on the time course can 'turn into an inferno.

Consolation

Left the school we went to Milonga Sentimental y Coquet at Maipu '444.

Pleasant climate, good level of Tango. Sara finally satisfied after a tanda with ladies who in addition to the dance offers its kind and affectionate ways.

Comparing

In these days we are following the lessons of a group of MAESTRA.

This is a true professional with an effective method and with a great technical depth.

Uses that help employees in propaedeutic physical preparation and other stages of the lesson.

The participants of the course are for the most Argentines, people who follow the patrol during the exercises itself in a gentle and calm.

It 'a clear difference in quality' between the "Maestro" and MAESTRA, even if it offers the lesson at a price more 'low.

From those experiences we would like to propose a reflection:

"Every teacher has pupils it deserves."

you who do you think?

Cuentos de Aires n.4

Buenos Aires, March 25, 2008

Hints of experiences and finally a Board of reading.

Saturday 22, the eve of Easter and 'one day and exciting.

From 15 to 19, I entrusted the claws of Sara Negra (Graciela Gonzales) to a stage of technical women.

While my sweet wife leonina learn the art of Tango, to paraphrase some of the teacher dictates, I entertained with gentle lady in gossip milonguero first quality '. I have done to explain all the events more 'caliente, and now I have a wealth of news dispenser', by appointment, to my return to Venice.

The stage of Gonzales and 'very interesting. Transmit the energy that characterizes the effective and provides images to explain the dynamics and structures of the ball.

Right time to put shoes on Sara and catapult us to where Centro Cultural Borges and 'program in the Missa Criolla by Ariel Ramirez, just to stay in theme with the holidays'.

Before and after the performance of Missa there have been offers of Chacarita and Zambia but the piece that has surprised us more 'e' was certainly a Gato run with a cappella choir.

And finally, a reading with the moral final.

Us, a week from now, a good book of macabre tales illustrated by Edward Gorey.

edwardgorey.jpg

Among the stories, The Blue Aspic tells the story of a ballerina, fully delivered, soul and body, to dance. Get 'great successes but his private life will be' marked by loneliness and sacrifice until the end.

A warning to prosecute, even Tango, the most 'high levels without denying the pleasure of fun.

Abrazo by Sara and Daniele

Cuentos de Aires 3

Buenos Aires, March 21, 2008

Thursday '21.30 evening: class with Graciela Gonzales and Pareja to Nino Bien, a follow milonga.

Density 'to be 10 dancers in a square meter. Dancing and 'very difficult. Furthermore Friday 'begins the Easter holiday bridge and then inflow and' extra-ordinary.

Sara plans to dance with me, but barride come in from all sides.

It seems a circle of hell Dante: that of "Tangheromani" obliged to pemanere in a track without being able to move and taking a lot of blows.

There 'an iguana in the jungle milonguero

The milonga and 'a bridge of humanity' varies among which the "tombeur de femme" ultrasettantenni inevitable with dyed hair and dress two sizes more 'big.

Open a small parenthesis, saying that Sara and I had not ever seen before now, so supply of hair dye for men perfumeries and pharmacies. It 'interesting range of colors available from eggplant purple to yellow cob.

At some point in the evening Sara takes an expression Schifano. Immediately ask what caused this reaction and you show me a guy who is lick the cheek of her dancer while dancing. It 'a zombie movie by John Carpenter signed. The dancer pero 'you let go.

I think that, apart from the orrorosita 'of the gesture, has destroyed the hard work of maquillaje of women to prepare for the dance. Perhaps the new mascara has essences appettitose!

The iguana milonguero is repeated with another woman the next tanda.

Animal species to be protected or shut? and where?

Fortunately something good.

An evening so ', to be gladdened, needs a lot of pressure positive energy.

What Juan port when it arrives. We discard the gifts of Rosanna doing great show. A mixture of excitement and pleasure that helps us to address the latest tangos with the usual lightness, including bruising.

The choice of Juan.

How many of you know, when you dance in the patrol track is not activated for the first Tango. They must also pass the minutes before the end of couples deciding to talk dance.

What you say all these people? and a mystery! But the result 'a bailamme incredible.

Even those who do not want to talk the talk must wait. But if you do not want to do it as you can 'solve' s impasse?

Juan proposes a tactic that has experienced a long time pretending not to speak Spanish, maybe confesses to be German and doing well 'escapes the obligation to chiacchera that would be embarrassing.

A small lie that saves the women.

A hug from Sara and Daniele.
