7-8:15 pm: Part 1. The Essence of Tango: A Lecture & Conversation Perialta’s insights on what makes tango, tango from the past until now. Perialta will talk about music and cultural history, focusing on the 4-5 major orchestras of the past, and "Tango Hoy". Participants is encouraged to come with a "blank mind", with zero assumptions about what tango should be before this workshop. We hope for active listening, and active questioning and discussing for this session.
