Poema-s
Over at Alex.Tango he has compiled a list of performances on YouTube using the song “Poema”. It’s good to see different interpretations collected in one place.
My favourites? I really enjoy Javier and Chico’s interpretations.

Smooth
After coming across a clip that showed that in Tango three was not necessarily “a crowd”, here is something lovely that, to me, carries the message that age is not barrier to the creation of beauty. Lovely.
Does anyone know the name of this track? I actually have this song in my archive but unfortunately it was copied without the title…

Cacho Dante
It seems that one of the well-respected milonguero and teacher of the milonguero style – Cacho Dante – now also has a personal website! Hopefully this will make it easier to locate his classes from now on.
For those who have yet to meet him (me included), here is a short scene from the movie The Tango Lessons, showing Cacho dancing with Sally Potter. He appeared from ~0:30-0:58.
ps. I have included this clip so this incident will not repeat itself in future…

Tribute video
Happened to come across a nice tribute to Ricardo Vidort, a well-respected milonguero who had passed away in 2006. This is a name I first came across on Tango and Chaos I had mentioned before, where you can see some enlightening clips of Ricardo (great insights into the attitudes and techniques of a milonguero by the way). Enjoy!
