Espectculos

Desde el saln de baile al escenario

Para hacer un buen espectculo de humor con lamilonga y sus personajes hay que haber vivido yobservado durante mucho tiempo ese mbito. YRamiro Gigliotti, autor y director, hace muchosaos que est all.

Esta obra es una sucesin de cuadros original-mente, cuentos unidos por el saln de baile.Entorno que oficia de revelador de los seres huma-nos. Los concurrentes cada uno de ellos distintoen su individualidad cumplen cdigos y rituales,repiten y manifiestan sentimientos, que no hacen

sino subrayar lo que los hace reconocibles.

As, van apareciendo los varones que enhebranun dilogo donde el tema nico son las mujeres;el veterano cargoso que no deja salir a bailar aljoven atrapado por una charla que no le interesa;aquel que sufre el amor ya acabado, y comienzasu monlogo con mucho odio para terminar reco-nociendo un afecto que permanece; la mujer quecuenta sus desventuras sentimentales; y as deseguido. Una serie de historias que se renovaronen este ao 2013.

La interpretacin, que casi no parece tal, sinouna traslacin desde el saln al escenario, lahacen habituales concurrentes a los bailes. Pero,

hay que destacar una labor de actuacin y dedireccin que lo transforma en un espectculorecomendable.

Chaucito, historias de milonga. Elenco: VeraCzemerinski, Jennifer Roberts, Marina Svartzman,Paula Travnik, Anala Vega, Fandi Bufager, LucasDi Giorgio, Horacio Gabn, Claudio Strang, MarceloVarela y pareja estelar invitada. Libro y direccin:Ramiro Gigliotti.Elkafka Espacio Teatral, Lambar 866, tel. 4862-5439. Domingos a las 21 hs. Entradas: $ 70, jubi-lados y estudiantes $ 50.

Musical dialogado sobre un artistafundamental

La muerte es un trmino a partir de la cual ya nose podrn concretar los proyectos que se tienen.En esta obra Homero Manzi toma conciencia desu prximo fin y hace un racconto de momentosrelevantes de su existencia para encontrarse con lohumano.

Dnde vas carrerito del Once? es la pregunta-cancin que surge en ese momento. A partir de allson escenas dialogadas y cantadas las que enlazan

sus concepciones y su actividad poltica, su vidasentimental y, fundamentalmente, su relacin conla cancionista Nelly Omar.

En el texto no faltan los reclamos que tienen vigen-cia actual, como el de que la cultura popular tieneque ser una poltica de Estado. Y un monlogo consu hijo Acho donde vuelca su experiencia y aconseja.

Hay una actuacin impecable de los artistas, y JorgeSurez y Julia Calvo le dan al canto un brillo y unaexpresividad que refuerzan la historia. Nstor Canigliainterpreta con solvencia a los distintos interlocutorescon los que dialogan los personajes principales.

Los autores arman un espectculo excepcional,con muy buen gusto en la seleccin de los temas,de los actores y de los msicos que comparten elescenario, ms los tcnicos fuera de l.

Manzi. La vida en orsai. Elenco: Jorge Surez,Julia Calvo y Nstor Caniglia. Msicos: Damin Bolo-tn y Mariana Atamas (violn), Gabriel Rivano (bando-nen) y Diego Vila (piano, arreglos y direccin musi-cal). Libro: Betty Gambartes, Diego Vila y BernardoCarey.

Editors Letter

TITO PALUMBO

Editor

Tito Palumbo and B.A. Tango -Buenos Aires Tango Group are on

Good news! Were read! Were paidattention to! For you to understandwhat Im talking about, I have to referback to the Editors Letter in issue N 212.There, I told you that the officials in the citygovernment who are in charge of organizing theWorld Championships had noted our remarksregarding different aspects of the competitionsand have implemented the modifications that Ilobbied for.

I concluded saying: We still need to cre-ate a Code of Ethics or include new sections inthe regulations, so jury members may excusethemselves in case there are students, familymembers and/or friends participating in thecompetition.

Therefore in the 2013 Championship, a newregulation related to what we had requested has

been added to the Rules.

The following is the literal transcription ofthe new rule regarding Jury selection: Any jurymember who may have had a work or personalrelationship or who has been the teacher of anyof the participants of the Championship for aperiod of at least 6 months close to the begin-ning of the competition, shall refrain from scor-ing such participants. For this purpose, both thevoluntary statements of the jury members andthe information provided by participants whenenrolling will be taken into account. In thesecases, the organization may opt for appointinga substitute jury member or getting the couples

final scoreby dividing the amount of pointsreceived by the number of jury members whohave actually voted.

* * *

In my opinion, the city officials in chargesince 2007 undid almost everything that hadbeen achieved by the previous political admin-istrations, or they changed names to concealrelations or continuity. Some of these changesinvolved events and others with the media relat-ed to tango the Web site Tangodata, among

them; in addition to replacing the officials andemployees who worked in these specific areas.

The result was that a great deal of experiencewas lost and the newly public officials had to startlearning everything from the beginning relatedto their jobs and the organization. Now finallythings are improving again year after year.

However there is a concern that in thefuture, along with political changes in the citygovernment, these circumstances will likelyreoccur.

* * *

The Milonga Organizers Association (MOA)neither cooperates nor participates in the 2013Tango Buenos Aires Festival and World Cup.After having held meetings with public officials,the Organizers Association concluded that

they could not reach an agreement on severalsignificant items, among them: that the MOAshould be in charge of the organization of themilongas and that the Usina del Arte shouldnot be used for milongas, since these dances arenot usually held in that place; that they shouldhave the right to choose a number of jurors andnot just submit a list of eligible candidates; andthat the address, days and times of the milongasshould appear in the program published forthese events.

From this issue onwards, for reasons of per-sonal work load, this magazine will be published

every four months.

Shooting

I Felt Threatened and I ShotBy Tito Palumbo

T

he search warrant for the home of the Tapiafamily and Alans death all happened very

fast.In a few seconds, Corporal Rodrigo AlejandroValente, who acted as a brechero(1), broke into theplace, walked directly to the room in the back, andkicked the door open which was not locked.

He says that he gave the order of hands up!, butwith the light of the flashlight he carried, he sawthat Alan that had been sleeping was getting up andthreatened him with a gun.

And he then shot before Alan had finished getting up.

Totally unbelievable. According to the murderersstory, it is as if Alan had been sleeping holding the

handmade gun like a teddy bear, waiting for anattack, and when he heard the noise, he got up withit in his right hand.

It would have been more natural that the handmadegun had been beside him, say, on the table, and hehad made a movement to his side to get it.

According to the story told by the police officer,everything lasted a few seconds and Alan would nothave time to do it.

The entire account is told in a very calm, convinc-ing tone, with no aggressive behaviors, with linealthought, as Dr. Eduardo Piaggio, psychiatrist, stateswhen asked about the personality features of the

police officer.

The murderer may be convinced of having acted inthe right way, but the story about the threat seemsto be made up and repeated until he learned it byheart, we think.

In the Hearing RoomThe courts are not an exciting place. After watch-ing similar scenes on TV and in the movies, wherethe actors have clever phrases and sharp comments,these real oral and public hearings where the wit-nesses and experts give their testimony are some-times tedious.

The shadows before the dawnThe search took place on February 15, 2012, a littlebefore 6 am.

The defendant mentions the darkness of the roomwhere Alan was; and the emergency service doc-tor who arrived forty minutes after the situationaccording to Alans mother talks about the shad-ows of dawn.

The lack of artificial light is also mentioned. Rodri-go Valente says that he turned on the light in theroom after having fired a shot. Alans mother affirmsthat in the corridor in front of the room there is afluorescent light that is on all night long until thereis enough natural light for it to turn off.

The handmade gun that is shown in the secondhearing and is said to be the one that Alan had inhis right hand is not even a replica of a gun, statesthe expert in weapons and ammunitions JavierAbedini. The plaintiffs attorney asked him Can areplica be considered something that may intimi-date? And the answer was It isnt a gun, it isnt areplica. A replica is similar to a gun, it is an elementthat emulates a gun, but this is not a replica.

The bullet that caused his deathThe bullet that caused Alans death is knownas 2.23, it is also known as 5.56 x 45, says JavierAbedini, the expert in Forensic Ballistics. If its tra-jectory changes its course, it may be fragmented. Ithas different behaviors: it may be totally or partiallyfragmented, or it may be completely dissolved.

And a very special characteristic of this bullet is thatit changes its course in the human body.

The expert Dr. Hctor Flix Konopka, pathologist,drew on a board the trajectories of a conventionalbullet, which crosses a human body in a straight lineand that of a 5.56, which moves in curves and doesnot leave the body after it has entered , to avoid

collateral damages, he says, referring to the fact thatit will not reach other people.

And this opinion is also supported by expert JavierAbedini, who said: The bullet turns round on itself.It depletes all its energy on the target and doesnt getout of the body.

When it entered Alans body, it left a one-centime-ter-diameter hole; then, it had an irregular trajec-tory affecting several vital organs. The death tookplace in the Pirovano Hospital, at 10:45 am. while hewas undergoing surgery due to abdominal injurieswith internal hemorrhaging.

In our country, there are no juries. Thats why hear-ings do not start with long opening statements

where the stars shine. This is left for the closingarguments, after the witnesses and experts finishtheir testimony. For the time being, the same ques-tions seem to be asked over and over again, perhapstrying to make the interrogated person contradicthis sayings.

Everything takes place in front of three judges thatform the Oral and Criminal Court (President, Dr.Alberto Huarte Petite, Members, Dr. Floreal D. DeLaurentis and Dr. Enrique Mario Pose.) They are ona stand, a little taller than the level of the floor; ontheir right, there are two secretaries who assist bydelivering or returning files and with other elementsof the trial.

The parties attorneys are located as follows: onone side of the stand, the defendant and his attor-neys; on the other side, the plaintiffs attorneys, Dr.Sebastin Rodrguez and Dr. Pablo Lorenzo, and theprosecutor, Dr. Eduardo D. Marazzi, with ClaudiaRiveros, Alans mother, behind them.

In front of the judges stand, there is a desk and achair where the witnesses and experts give theirtestimony.

There is contained tension among the audience.There are two rows of seats. Fifteen people betweenthe defendants relatives and friends near him; onthe other side, another fifteen people, Alans rela-tives and friends, and members of political parties

organizations. The room only seats this limitednumber of people and many who came to the firsthearing were not able to get in.

Rodrigo Valente walked in handcuffed and accom-panied by two officers of the penitentiary. Hishandcuffs were removed when he reached the tablewhere his attorneys were. He is 36 years old, tall, offair complexion, bald on top of his head, and on thesides he has shaved off his remaining hair. He standsstraight. He is wearing a pea coat; underneath hehas a casual shirt and a round collar vest, jeans andpale moccasins. At all times, he is calm and gives nosign of worry or unease.

The purpose of this bullet is to cause the most inter-nal damage. Its function is not to prevent the personfrom moving, or to cause a localized or minorinjury; its only function is to kill.

Wikipedia says that it is a bullet which has an effec-tive reach of 310 meters (1,017 feet) and a maxi-mum reach of 1.500 meters (4,920 feet.)

And he was shot from less than seven feet away!

The judges actively participate during the hear-ingsOn July 4 and 11, 2013, in the morning, the first

public and oral hearings took place in the trialagainst Corporal Rodrigo Alejandro Valente, ofthe Federal Police, member of the GEOF, who ischarged with aggravated felony murder as a memberof a security force.

Something that differentiated these hearings fromthose seen in the movies or on TV is the activeparticipation of the judges during the trial. They askquestions, like the parties attorneys.

On three occasions, the Head of the Court calledfor the attention of th e defendants attorney and

rejected questions asked by him to the psychiatrist,Dr. Eduardo Piaggio, ordering the attorney to referonly to the report that the expert had submitted.

Whats nextThe plaintiff must prove that Alan Stefano Tapianever had a handmade gun the iron thing thathe supposedly used to confront officer RodrigoValente.

That it was planted by the police that is to say, putin the room after the crime by the police to free themurderer from liability.

An expert in dactyloscopy will have to determinewhether Alans fingerprints were found on the gu n.

Rodrigo Valente acted following the Protocolsof Action of the Federal Police. Alans motherrequests the authorities to revise those protocolsto prevent other cases like this, where policeofficers break into a home without prior warningand shoot at innocent people without asking anyquestions.

The next public and oral hearings will take place inAugust, after the midyear holiday.

GLORIA BENEDOSSI VALCA-DO (cantante GLORIA BEVAL)dej este mensaje que es toda unahistoria de vida.Estimado Sr. Palumbo: Qute puedo contar que vos ya nosepas si sos tanguero de ley? Comotanguera digo que el tango melleg con los grandes siendo yomuy chica. Yo viva en ValentnAlsina y cerca de casa haba un

club El Porvenir. Se presentabacantando Alberto Castillo y suscandomberos. Yo me volva loca.Mi viejo, acrrimo opositor deque yo cantara tangos (a pesarque an resuena en mis odos susilbido con Silbando), sigo, seneg a que mi madre me llevaraa ver a Castillo pero vencimos lasdos y termin bailando en brazosdel Sr. Castillo un tango en elescenario de El Porvenir con midolo en aquel entonces y ahora.Todava haba que vivir ms yCON TUTI. Ms tarde, estudimsica en el Conservatorio SantaCecilia y llegu a grabar guaranias(solo para que le quedaran derecuerdo a mi madre). Sigue elminutero. Mis estudios terciariosme ofrecen medicina y llegu. Miscompaeros del colegio me pedanque cantara y yo (siempre fuitmida e introvertida) lo haca conun desparpajo tal como si hubierasido una profesional. Hoy tengo elcarnet de cantante pero si no fuerapor mis consultas mdicas -qui-siera dedicarme profesionalmentey vivir de la msica- me morirade hambre. Ya grande empec adescubrir cuando escuchaba msi-ca una simbiosis con mi tarea demdica (me pasaba especialmentecon el tango) y pens: esto qu

corno quiere decirme. Entoncesdescubr con un relmpago que enlos tangos encontraba las historiasque me contaba la gente en la con-sulta, porque sabs? muchsimano venia a pedir cura al mdicosino compaa, contencin, tiempoy una oreja para sus problemas.Me di cuenta que tristeza, solidari-dad, angustia, nostalgia, violencia,castigo, premio, todo lo humanoque me era privilegio escuchar lorelataban los tangos. En otras letrasde folklore, ritmo latinoamericano,pera, zarzuela, bossa-nova, blues,

GLORIA BENEDOSSI VAL-CADO (singer GLORIA BEVAL)left this message that is a wholelife story.I cant tell you anything new youdont know, youre a real tanguero.As a tanguera, I say that tangoapproached me with older peoplewhen I was very young. I livedin Valentn Alsina and near myhome, there was a club El Por-

venir. There was a performanceby Alberto Castillo and hiscandombe players. I went crazy.My dad, totally against my sing-ing tango (though I can still hearhis echo whistling Whistling),continuing with my story, hedidnt want my mother to take meto see Castillo, but we won thatbattle and I ended up dancing atango on the stage of El Porvenir,with my idol at those times andstill now, Mr. Castillo. I still hadto live more and GIVE IT ALL.Later, I studied music in the Con-servatory and I recorded guara-nias (only because I wanted my

mother to keep them). Time wentby. My tertiary studies offered methe study of medicine and I didthat. My school mates asked meto sing and I (Id always been shyand introverted) sang with suchself-confidence it was as if I hadbeen a professional singer. Today,I have a card as a singer, Id liketo do it professionally and liveon music but if not for my workas a doctor I wouldnt be able tomake ends meet. As an adult, Istarted to discover, when I lis-tened to music, a symbiosis withmy work as a doctor (it happenedto me especially with tango) and Ithought: what on earth does this

want to tell me? I discovered ina flash that in tangos I found thestories that my patients told me,because, you know what? manydidnt come to the doctor to askfor a cure but actually seekingcompany, support, time and anear for their problems. I realizedthat sadness, solidarity, distress,nostalgia, violence, punishment,reward, all the human feelingsthat I had the privilege to hear,were told by tango. In otherfolklore, latinamerican songs,

gospel, encontr lo mismo que ennuestro tango y tal como lo rela-taban mis pacientes. C omprendentonces por qu el tango esreconocido mundialmente: porquehabla de sentimientos universalesy cotidianos en cualquier idioma.Claro a NUESTRO TANGO HAYQUE AGREGARLE EL ACENTOPORTEO, RANTE. Me despidocon un enorme abrazo te gust?

P.D. Hago llegar mi agradecimien-to (a) la impagable Sra. NlidaRouchetto. Quiero agradecer aesta seora, una dulce cabrona, elhaber conocido(vivindolo) alMudo. Me atrevo a regalarle vayaregalo por el recuerdo del Da delAmigo esta cuarteta de mi autoraya que en mis noches de insomniome dedico a darle a la croqueta:Deschave.Sos el castigo implacable para elchanta ventajero/ que te utilizadiquero para lucirse en la pista/detrs de alguna conquista que yalo embroco fulero/ sos TANGO...bien argentino igual que el tutecabrero.

operas, zarzuela, bossa-nova,blues and gospel lyrics I found thesame themes as in our tango andexactly as my patients related it.So I then understood why tango isrecognized worldwide: because ittalks about feelings which are uni-versal and current in any cultureOf course, OUR TANGO ALSOHAS THE INSOLENT PORTEOACCENT. And now I will say

goodbye with a huge hug. Did youlike my story?

P.S. Id like to thank Mrs. NlidaRouchetto () for her invaluableassistance. Id like to thank thiswoman, a sweet lowlife lady,for having met (living him) theDumb (singer Carlos Gardel.

No es real sudefinicin ideolgica de PuebloTango, ni que cuente con subsidiopara financiar las milongas condebate de temas de inters nacio-nal, social, econmico y poltico.La impronta es absolutamenteplural ideolgicamente, sus inte-grantes provenimos de diferentespreferencias partidarias y algunostotalmente independientes, unin-donos la vocacin social y demo-crtica aunada a nuestra pasinpor el tango como danza y espaciopopular inclusiva de las diferentesclases socio-econmicas. Surgi enlas milongas donde notamos con-fluencias por sobre los diferentesorgenes ideolgicos de quieneslo conformamos-, siendo esa laidea central del Grupo, definidoen su constitucin, siendo premisafundacional. Nuestra visin radicaen apoyar el proyecto del Gobiernopor considerarlo nacional, populary plural, con sentido crtico, tantoa favor como en contra, discutien-do las medidas implementadas

desde lo ideolgico y a partir de lasprofesiones de sus integrantes.

Dear Lil and Martn: Im verythankful for such wise ideas. I feelthe obligation to keep and improvethis line of work. Also, many thanks

for the support you give our publi-cation. With a tanguero embrace.

LAURA FUXMAN, wrote on

Facebook, answering our Edi-tors Letter on issue N 213.Mr Palumbo: Id like to answeryour publication with a per-sonal expression which does notinvolve our Group. Your ideologi-cal point of view about PuebloTango is not a real one, nor thatthis group receives benefitsto finance the milongas wheresocial, economic and politicalnational interest issues are dis-cussed. The style is absolutelypluralist. its members we comefrom different political partypreferences and some are totallyindependent. We come together

for our shared social and demo-cratic calling; gathered in ourpassion for tango as a dance andpopular space which includesdifferent socio-economic classes.This Group emerged in milongas,where we noticed convergencesabove all different ideologicalorigins of those who form it. Thatis the Groups core idea, definedat its creation as its foundationalpremise. Our view lies in sup-porting the Governments projectsince we consider it national,popular and pluralist, and alsowith a critical sense, both infavor and against, discussing themeasures implemented from the

ideological standpoint and theprofessions of its members.

SUSANA FABRYKANT, lunfardopoems reader, said: Many thanksmy dear friend Tito for sendingme your magazine in three parts.As usual, there is a lot of materialwith updated information and pic-tures... Each time is better! Whata good photographer you have!Another tanguero hug for you andmy appreciation for your work andeffort for our tango.

Four hours. She got out of the cab withher keys to the building in hand, tryingto save some seconds in those short fourhours that she had to remove her milonguera

skin, have a shower, sleep a bit, have breakfast,put on the clothes that she had prepared beforegoing out, and after a fifteen-minute drive, six,clock in at the hospital where she works.

Six oclock, the time that has marked her life foryears; that time of everybody, or badly called ofnobody; that time that is usually the last timeof the night or the first of the day, and that forcenturies, has been claimed by both; the time atwhich some, like her, start work, and others, likeher, do not want to abandon their dreams. Thetime of those who feel it is the moment that theirfears and nightmares end. And of those whoknow that they start there. It is the time withsome sun and moon and no sun and moon

and with plenty of both; it is the time in whichwe think we have forgotten and is the time thatour memories hurt us most fiercely. The timeat which every day, Alice starts being...or stopsbeing, the one she is.

After having promised herself hundreds oftimes that she would not go to the milongason weekdays, and after hundreds of times ofbreaking her promises, she decided to go ondoing itwith no promises and no guilt.

Taking the elevator she was feeling a strangeand pleasant sense of physical tiredness; shewondered whether if she had stayed sleeping

at home, she would be rested, or if life wouldhave managed to make her more tired? Shelooked at herself in the mirror and felt fu lfilled.

An accomplice and a pal, the mirror showedher the image of a refined mature womanwith all her accounts settled. She did not oweanything to life, not even those small accountsmentioned on a tango lyric that had been for-gotten unnoticed. She looked back at herselfin the mirror and couldnt help but smile, herlast drops of sweat still insisting on makingher hair look like a blob on her forehead andcheeks. The bags under her eyes reminded her

Short Story Continued from page 33

Alice and the milonguero mirrorBy Roberto Aguirre (1)

that it was a great night, she may have dancedless than other nights, but she danced with thoseshe enjoys dancing with and danced those danc-es that a milonguera knows touches the soul.

When the elevator stopped on her floor andbefore getting off, she smiled knowing that themirror only showed her image, without judgingor criticizing her; perhaps knowing that in onlyfour hours it would see her again, bright andbeautiful, with no sweat drops on her hair, nowpulled back in a ponytail.

As punctual as always, she started her shift. Thehabitual visit and checking of the ward took hera bit more than half an hour. When she finished,she gave the report to the chief doctor of theward. She noticed him like many times before afflicted, overwhelmed with obligations,immersed in todays sadness, delaying pleasures

till tomorrow, allowing fate to manipulate time,time that seemed to mean not living.

Something in her boss made her think that hewas one of those people who has been markedwith an invisible mark destined to have anunhappy fate. She imagined that he had lackedsome affection and that that could have changedhis days. He even lacked an elevator mirrorwhich would show him what she could see.

Maybe, seeing him like this encouraged her toask him the question. Doctor, do you live in abuilding with an elevator? The answer was no.

Alice asked again, do you dance tango? Again,the answer was no.

Before leaving the office, Alicia looked at him inthe same way she had been looked at so manytimes before being asked to dance and said...YOU SHOULD.

As she walked she felt behind her an invisible, butnot related to work bridge that joined her to herboss and, in the music of her favorite tango, sheheard an echo of YOU SHOULD.

The 11 City Tango Dance Championship 2013

From the dance hall to the stageIn order to create a good funny show with themilonga and its characters, one should have livedand observed this environment for a long time. AndRamiro Gigliotti, author and director, has been therefor many years.

This play is a succession of scenes -originally, shortstories- joined by the dance hall. An environment

which acts as the show of human beings. Thegoers each of them different in their individual-ity follow codes and rituals, repeat and expressfeelings, which only emphasize what makes themrecognizable.

Thus, there are men who develop a dialogue wherethe only topic is women; the old annoying guy whodoesnt let the young man dance by catching himwith an uninteresting talk; the one who suffers anended love, and starts his monologue with a lot ofhatred but finishes admitting a love that has notdied; the woman who talks about her love misfor-tunes; and so forth. A series that has been renewedthis year 2013.

The performance, which barely appears to be so, buta transfer from the dance hall to the stage, is made

by regular goers of the milongas. But, the acting anddirection are worth highlighting since they make thisa recommendable show.

Theater

A musical with dialogues on abasic artistDeath is a term after which our projects cannot becometrue. In this show, Homero Manzi becomes aware ofhis imminent end and has a flashback of significantmoments of his life to finally meet the human side.

Where are you going little cart driver from Once? isthe question-song that emerges at that moment.From then on, it is scenes with dialogues and songs,which intertwine his political activities and concep-tions, his love life and, mainly, his relationship withsinger Nelly Omar.

In the text, there are also updated claims, like theone that says that popular culture has to be a Statepolicy. And a monologue with his son Acho, where hetalks about his experience and gives advice.

Artists make an outstanding performance; JorgeSurez and Julia Calvo give the songs sparkle andexpressiveness that reinforce the story. Nstor Can-iglia plays, competently, the different persons withwhom the main characters dialogue.

The authors made an extraordinary show, with very

good taste in the selection of songs, of actors andmusicians who share the stage, plus the techniciansbehind the scenes.

Life in Off Side).Cast: Jorge Surez, Julia Calvo and Nstor Caniglia.Musicians: Damin Bolotn and Mariana Atamas(violin), Gabriel Rivano (bandonion) and Diego Vila(piano, arrangements and conductor).

Here there are poems loaded with left-wing activism, using a lot of lunfardoterms or inverted words, typical of por-teos speakers.

He expresses himself with more good willand wish to give testimony to his ideas andoutstanding social moments; to pay trib-ute to friends, artists and others; to revileenemies and adversaries, than respectingmetrical patterns and literary rules.

There are plenty of literary expressions andfigures which are outstanding discoveries.The sun which is on the roadstead / itsway like a ship is waiting (page 89), If Iget to know the factory of your sanctuary

/ where one can learn how to dress life(page 106), The ozone was mended / with

a thread of pure air (page 134), amongothers.

The poems are annotated in a way that, insome cases, they elaborate on the knowl-edge of the topic discussed. But it is worthwondering whether the gloss is a neces-sary resource, or should the poem be self-explanatory.

He keeps his hopes unchanged for a betterworld, a different fairer society, the Utopiaof the title, despite the setbacks suffered.

Anew Carl Sagan, astronomer, cos-mologist, dancer, writer a prideborn in these lands of the South-ern Hemisphere aims his powerful andpenetrating spatial telescope and dis-

covers a new celestial body in the vastfirmament: planet Tango.

In this way readers may obtain adetailed description of several worlds:the tanguero and milonguero worlds,their inhabitants, and the flora andfauna that inhabit those regions. Hehighlights their signs of life and discov-ers the laws that rule their behavior.Including a law that contradicts thepassing of time marked by the spatialcounterclockwise walks.

He gives advice to those who want tovisit this planet and not be frustratedby a first time bad experience. Hemoves in time and has a new, personalapproach to tango lyrics. The name ofan ancient Greek poet also appears in adialogue by lyricists. And there is alsoa mocking reproval to the ones who arealways criticizing those who bring someinnovation.

Carlos Medrano deals with words in anoutstanding way to describe this, our

world of Tango.

ENSEANZA Y PRCTICA

other effects, since we receive them indirectly(thanks, Marechal,) superficially, and they bring usmemories of moments and places neither lived norenjoyed, nor suffered by us, but by our parents andgrandparents.

Nowadays, our feelings go along emotionaland sensorial paths which are distant from ourthoughts, left at the doorstep of milongas.

Nowadays, we dance tango as an expression offreedom, interaction, connection. Meaning Imalive. I want to live. I want to be part. I want tofeel. I want to be felt. I want to embrace. I wantto communicate from my embrace. I want to be

embraced. With feeling. Deeply. I want to be a lit-tle happy, among so much uncertainty, ambiguity,double speech and lack of information.

I need to talk. Talk from the feeling and the body,

no more and no less. It would be as moving from Ithink, therefore I amto I dance, therefore I am.

If Discpolo had had the chance to put his noseagainst the window in any of our milongas, hemight have said:

Dancing is a pleasure, a great, sensual one(6)

Leopoldo Marechal, in his novel Megafn orthe War, provided an interesting descrip-tion: a skinny-faced and feverish-eyed being

broke in and addressing the bandoneon players, hesaid: -Listen, music souls! If tango has died, you crywith a reason. And if it hasnt. Why are you crying?Ineffable malefactors, up your hearts! Tango is aninfinite possibility.- Discepoln! cried together the riders.(3)

Words which drive us to delve, with todayseyes, into Enrique Santos Discpolos (Discepoln)famous phrase: Tango is a sad thought which canbe danced. We know from Borges, that it emergedaround the 1930s.(4)

A phrase of extraordinary applicability, whichovercame the big controversies that were causedon its way. Great attention has been dedicated tothis phrase by Jorge Luis Borges(4), Ernesto Sba-to(5), musicians, composers, reporters and manyothers, who have contributed a wide range ofopinions about it. Even Ezequiel Martnez Estradacontributed a comment: It is possible, at its rhythm,to stop the thought and let the soul float in the body.

Currently, Discpolos phrase is frequently citedby the general public, the media, experts, intel-lectuals and as an instruction in some essays atuniversities.

Discpolo described the feelings of a societythat today is part of the past. Despite its historicalimportance and formal and conceptual impact,that phrase should be measured by those who cur-rently go to milongas, with the object of v alidatingits applicability.

Today, we dance the same tangos as of thosetimes; tangos with lyrics which are universal orconnected with past psychological and socio-logical moments of the ci
