Tango Gala - an EXCLUSIVE EVENT

What a great way to contribute to the arts in Brownsville: sharing artistry & dinner with friends!

  

No other music captures a greater range of passionate expression in a single presentation as effectively as Tango. Born on the fringes of society, it is an intimately interwoven texture of drama, movement, and music. Tango captures the struggle between what binds us together and what pushes us apart. It is the arc of these ancient forces that serves to generate an intense reflection of desire.


This is Tango Gala.

Check out the world-class artists and the Gala special menu below.


The proceeds from this event go to help the Brownsville Society for the Performing Arts continue its mission to bring life changing, world-class music to Brownsville.

Duo Bandini-Chiacchiaretta

 Giampaolo Bandini - Cesare Chiacchiaretta Duo, formed in 2002, aiming to popularize Argentine music through the charm and magic of its most representative instruments. The duo immediately became an important point of reference in the international concert circuit, thanks to their great communicativeness combined with an extraordinary charisma. They have since been invited to the most important festivals and theatres, touring the world across more than 50 countries, to outstanding critical and audience approval. They have also been recorded by the most important radio and television broadcasters in Italy and abroad.  In 2016 they had their debut for the Decca label with the cd Escualo, hommage to Astor Piazzolla, followed by "Tango, Misterio y Folia" in 2020.

The duo had the privilege of playing Astor Piazzolla's Double Concerto "Hommage a Liegi" conducted by Maestro Leo Brouwer. The great Cuban composer has also dedicated to them "La Folia a Traves de los siglos" in 2017. Additionally, they’ve performed original compositions written for them by the likes of Daniel Binelli, Fernando Tavolaro, Saverio Rapezzi, and Maximo Diego Pujol, who dedicated to them the Double Concerto for guitar, bandoneon and orchestra "Luminosa Buenos Aires" (2009).

As teachers, the duo are requested by the most renowned Academies and international Universities, holding classes at the Institutes of Higher Education "Luigi Boccherini" in Lucca and "Umberto Giordano" in Foggia.

Tango

               

BSPA is excited to bring LIVE performances of world-class caliber to Brownsville! 


Tango represents an artform in itself. There is much to discover about this genre:

 

The Tango is a dramatic dance style that is popular in the United States and all over the world. It is characterized by sharp, staccato movements and a passionate attitude. Due to its theatrical nature, Tango dancing has been featured in many films including, “Scent of a Woman” with Al Pacino, “Moulin Rouge,” and “True Lies” starring Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jamie Lee Curtis.

Tango is a dance with dramatic flair, using “stalking” and “sneaking” walking characteristics that separate it from the other ballroom dancing styles.  Tango was originally formulated in Buenos Aires, Argentina among the working-class citizens. The dance roots lie in the Cuban habanera dance, the Argentine Milonga and Candombe. It also has origins tracing back to African rhythms and European music.

The greatest Tango composer is generally acknowledged as Astor Piazzolla who expanded the style to include classical influences, like orchestras, and even Jazz idioms. His music became more intricate and not associated with dancing at all in performances. Yet he never lost touch the old styles of tango and he was inevitably tied to the intensity of its essence.
