Tango - Mabel y Amigos - Performance art

Intention, encounter, illusion… playing a game with your partner

The Tango is a living dance, offering a myriad of stylistic possibilities and expressions.

The music that you hear during a milonga (that is, a tango ball) is very varied, and the spatial conditions for dancing change continually. The dance floor is like a breathing organism, full of harmony and with a beauty of its own.

In the world of Tango, there are different kinds of embrace, different sources of movement and different ways of changing the distance between the two dancing bodies. This distance and the spatial options are closely connected to our choreographic elements and our improvisation.

Analía Del Giglio - Tango DJ

Tango dancer, teacher and disc jockey, Analía organises tango events and directs performances by various artists in her hometown Rosario.

At her tango events there have participated, among others, such internationally renowned orchestras as Color Tango, Sans Souci, Sexteto Milonguero, Los Reyes del Tango and El Arranque as well as distinguished dancers such as Pancho Martínez Pey, Gaby Amalfitani, Melina Brufman, Claudio González, Ezequiel Farfaro, Lucia Mazer, Eugenia Parrilla, Mabel Rivero, Andrea Missé, Javier Rodríguez, Geraldin Rojas, Ezequiel Paludi, Enrique Grahl, Judita Zapatero, Osvaldo Zotto, Lorena Ermocida, Cecilia García and Horacio Godoy.

In 2004 and 2005 she founds in the port city of Rosario the weekly milongas Milonga Las Chirusas and Flor de Chirusas, which have become an integral part of Rosario’s tango scene, popular with tango dancers from all walks of life.

In 2005 and 2006 she conceives and directs various projects on behalf of the Bureau of Cultural Affairs of the city of Rosario and the city council of Buenos Aires aimed at giving a boost to the tango scene in Rosario:

Encuentro Metropolitano de Tango
Pa’que bailen los muchachos
Sede Mundial de Tango

In 2006 she founds the tango school Escuela de Tango Argentino Las Chirusas in Rosario. The school’s projects include:

Tango Tendencias 2007
Tango Maestro 2008

Analía’s trademark is the chirusa, a lunfardo (Argentine tango slang) term for a somewhat disorderly woman who had a rough life but who accepts this pejorative appellation with pride and charm.

Gustavo Colmenarejo

Gustavo Colmenarejo was born in Buenos Aires city.

He came into contact with dancing through the Argentine folklore. He graduated as superior teacher of Argentine folkloric dance (“El tango” included). He also performed together with a folkloric company in theatres of Argentina, Chile, Bolivia, Uruguay and Cuba.

At the same time, he studied music (violin). The acquisition of this kind of knowledge provided him with valuable influence that results in the great richness of his dancing musicality.

In 1997 he started his specific study of tango. During the next years, he periodically took classes with recognized tango masters.
Similarly, he studied classic ballet and techniques of contemporary dances. All these contributed to his solid formation as dancer.

He lives in Berlin, Germany, since April 2005, where he continues with his teaching work, performances, as well as holding workshops of Argentine folklore
Regularly, he works as teacher and dancer in cities of Germany, Italy, Greece, Croatia and the city of Hong Kong.

His personal style, consolidated by traditional trends and enriched by contributions of the so-called “tango nuevo” result in a refined mixture where the musicality, the fluency of movement and the understanding between partners are the personal and unmistakable stamp of this young dancer.

Since 2007, he is working together with Mabel Rivero.
