TANGO Y VALSES
Choreography Ana Maria StekelmanCompany TangoKinesis Excerpt Valses (1999)
Perhaps the most famous Latin American choreographer. Ana Maria Stekelman has choreographed the tango for all the greatest companies in the world and in particular for Julio Bocca. The tango, a dance in its own right, can exist, can be danced outside of the music of the same name. The tango, that offers its sensuality to the freedom of movement of contemporary dance. This is not an evening of showcases but of three pieces, a brilliant, spirited composition to the music of Piazzola, Strauss and Vivaldi.
This programme is a clever mix of already-existing works and others that have been specially created for the 10th Biennial. Divided into three parts, it presents a variety of styles for which the company is renowned: – “Suite de Tango” (2001), which among others incorporates “Tango Kinesis” and “Tango y fuga Angeles desnudos” – “Valses” (1999) which is the central part of the “Tango, Vals, Tango” performance, created for the 53rd Festival d’Avignon – “4 piazzollas” (1997) comprising 4 little-known tangos from the amazing bandoneonist, which is the catalyst of this piece.
