Maria Castello (Buenos Aires) and Jacques Saint-Cyr (Montreal) are once again returning to Champaign-Urbana to please us with their great tango performances. This time they are bringing their collaborating pianist Victor Simon from Buenos Aires to present their production 'It takes 3 to Tango', which integrates oral history, music and dance. The program takes the audience through the history of this cultural phenomenon, from candombe, milonga, and canyengue through the Golden Age and on to the modern tango of Piazzolla. The different sections are linked by a theatrical presentation in which musicians and dancers become the characters that witness the evolution of Tango. The musicians' participation varies from interpreting the music to accompanying the dance to dancing while playing.
The Tango Society of Central Illinois is pleased to host the tango show "It takes 3 to Tango" on Saturday October 22 at the Phillips Recreation Center, 505 W Stoughton, Urbana, in conjunction with tango workshops and a milonga.
Complete details on the performers' backgrounds are available on our website:
