The show not only presents music and dance but also incorporates poetry, creating a multisensory experience that respects the essence of the genre while adapting to modern times.
Under the artistic direction of Alejandro Picciano, guitarist and founder of the group, ‘Así se baila el Tango’ stands out for its careful combination of instruments such as the bandoneón, piano, and guitar. These elements harmoniously interact with the solo voice and choreography, offering the audience a vibrant interpretation of immortal classics like those of Carlos Gardel or Astor Piazzolla.
Not only tango lovers will enjoy this event; La Porteña Tango has designed an audiovisual staging that appeals to both enthusiasts and new spectators. With meticulously crafted costumes and two dance couples that stand out for their elegance and expressiveness, each performance is a tribute to Argentina's rich cultural heritage.
Over nearly two decades, La Porteña Tango has developed a unique language that combines tradition with innovation. According to Picciano, this approach has positioned the group among the most prominent proposals in international stage tango. The company aims not only to entertain but also to educate the audience about the emotional depth of tango.
‘Así se baila el Tango’ is not just a show; it is a celebration of Argentinian art that invites everyone to immerse themselves in its passionate rhythms. This event promises to be an unforgettable experience for those wishing to explore the cultural richness of tango from a contemporary perspective.
