Milongas

0/5 ( ratings)

From its origins in the gritty bars of Buenos Aires, in his playful conspiratorial tone Cozarinsky moves us through the rich and varied culture of tango, circling the globe to hidden milongas tucked away in the crypt of a London Church, a café in Krakow, the quays of the Seine, to the Red Square of Moscow . At neighborhood dance halls vibrant and alive in the early hours of the morning, where young and old, foreign and native, novice and master come together in a tradi- tion that traverses borders, demographics, and social mores, “it is impossible to distinguish the dance from the dancer .” As erudite as he is candid and informal, Cozarinsky shares the culture of this timeless dance with us through glimmering anecdote, to celebrate its traditions, evolution, and the devotees who give it life .
