Balance Act
|
|
|
Black of mourning, gold of sacred
light wave raising from the ground, |
|
spiritual metamorphosis of
human’s flesh and blood , |
|
from glowing wrath until gilded
inner radiance. |
|
The leg is tightening , bending to
balance, |
|
Fondamental momentum of body and
soul. |
|
The body surges to silence in the
legs tension |
|
Then listens to spirits of life
on the beat of music. |

Being One
| |
|
Chimaera |
|
When happiness isn’t a dream but a
feeling of two heartbeats as one, |
|
When all the colors are melted in
a very intense moment of balck and white tenderness, |
|
When man and woman merge in a
mythological creature beyond differences , beyond
emotions, |
|
When souls are deeply moved and
can even, dance gracefully, fullbodied , be as care
free as light hearted |
|
Then , the state of beauty in
tango is absolute , |
|
self contained and cannot be
attained through activities of the intellect. |
|
Only so will it lie on directness
and sincerity , |
|
In a chimaera, born of dream and
humanity. |

Pertemuan
|
To receive life force from the
ground like the thrust of the steeple toward the sky, |
|
To express lyrical outburst of the
dancer, |
|
To sing flights of fancy in tango
dance, |
|
To be carried along by impetus, |
|
To be light of steps, |
|
To give the partner a warning
kick, |
|
To make a clean start, |
|
To do breakings off, movings ,
iterations, encounters, meltings, echoes, sparkles ,
smoothenesses, |
|
Feet lead you to elegance… |

Tango Fire
|
Hollywood tango |
|
Like a still from a film , as
Casablanca, |
|
in the scene but in the
bottom-right hand corner, |
|
like a half hidden advert |
|
the couple appears after the last
tango dance and produces an impression of legend, |
|
conveys a feeling of future’s
nostalgy |
| |
|
It depicts and betrays the dream
of being a myth |
| |
|
When your life is confused with
everyone’s dreams and imaginary projections, |
|
what will happen to you ? |
| |
|
After the scene, give up dreams to
casablanca’s night, |
|
Go to sleep under the stars, |
|
Then, |
|
Throw light on colors of human
life and art, |
|
Until tonight’s dance. |

Just a walk
|
Just touch the moment, |
|
be there and then , |
|
Walk and catch the instant |
|
You must be on the beat of Nature,
among the colors of daily life , |
|
for the time being |
|
Be confident in the moment , |
|
Just follow, follow and loose any
memory, |
|
Forget the logic and walk, just
walk, |
|
Your memory is in your feet . |
|
All emotions will make you dance, |
|
imagination will arise from
your steps , |
|
Walking is a perpetual movement |
|
And Tango, |
|
Tango is just a walk |

Gancho Peligroso
|
The time of green Gancho |
|
Kingdoms of plesure belong to the
violent one who |
|
Grabs it without getting injured. |
|
Its names is gancho |
|
It combines the two partners
bodies in a mythological human being. |
|
Legs are plated in a common and
ephemeral |
|
Space. |
|
On the border between opening and
intrusion , |
|
Gancho claims serenety then
confidence. |

Voleo Animal
|
Threads of life |
|
Lightening cords of life arise
from a grey daily shadow |
|
Golden yellow threads as the
purity and the coolness of a fountain |
|
Pink lines as a scald of sweetness |
|
The night comes after the day |
|
The dance overcomes the darkness,
as a ray of light amidst the gloom into the tangueros’
hearts, |
|
Then transforms their souls. |

Piernazo Sensual
|
Glore of boleo |
|
How to define the colour of boleo? |
|
For sure it should be red |
|
Red as the fire arison on the beat
of a slowed down dance |
|
Red as lightning whipping a
nostalgic melody |
|
Red as passion burn of contrasts |

Manana es hoy
|
Just a walk, just a flight |
|
people say in Asia , that it is
often more difficult to walk on the ground than to walk
on the sea… |
|
when tango spreads out on the
frontier between heaven, water and groundfloor , is it
just a walk or just a flight ? |
|
lightening tango in deep blue and
mystical red, |
|
shivers of love and dread, |
|
tango draws the Way, the Truth,
the respect for Life and Nature, |
|
towards the unknown. |

Trance Tango
|
Black of mourning, gold of
sacred light wave raising from the ground, |
|
Full moon tango |
|
In Indonesian lyrics, lovers say
to each other |
|
« When you’ll look at the moon
remember me » |
|
In the moon’s mirror , lovers gaze
at each other |
|
When tango rises in the full moon,
the hearts are beating as one, the spirits are melting,
the bodies are confused |
|
in a chimerical form,
undistinguishable from the cosmos. |
