Sometimes you see the strangest things happening at milongas. Two veteran milongueros dancing together. Between them, probably more than 50 years of tango experience. Who invited who?
Read MoreOn Thursday, Patio de Tango welcomed Andrea Reyero and Sebastian Misse for the second time (they were here also in July 2010). Their demo was traditional with some spectacular notes, and was a good reminder of how it’s supposed to be. DJ Mala was in good shape and made everyone dance until the very end. […]
Read MoreThe Patio is getting a good reputation for live tango concerts. Last week’s performance of the Alejandro Ziegler Quartet was a good example of why that is. With piano, double bass, violin and bandoneon, they played immaculate versions of famous tango songs. Not only that, once the first two numbers were over and the audience […]
Read MoreLast Sunday the lights in the Pianofabriek inspired me to experiment a bit with light and shadows. The results were interesting, and call for more elaboration. (As if I need an excuse to take pictures…) Sergio put up some great tango music, with little cortina gems of disco, funk and soul. Ah, the seventies …
Read MoreThanks to everyone who voted for the popular pictures of 2010, and here are the results: the most popular photo of 2010 is not one of a demo, of maestros, of spectacular moves, it is an intimistic portrait, taken in the Patio De Tango, in the beginning of October. In the foreground you see Karin […]

Read MoreThe demo of the Argentinian champions at the Patio de Tango was outstanding, and the crowd kept asking for ‘Otra’!
Read MoreDid you know that the Pianofabriek milonga is one of the oldest in Brussels? It has been held for almost twenty years (since 1992) by Sergio & Gisela. I went there last Sunday to take pictures. As usual, the place was packed with beautiful people, and I was having fun taking pictures of that. Some […]
Read MoreTangoquerido had invited two young Argentinian dancers to the WABO practica: Mario de Camillis and Barbara Wainnright. Their demonstrations were dynamic and skillfull, and their little act with the old milonguero couple (and that’s all I will tell – no spoilers) is original and funny.
Read MoreI took the liberty of taking some pictures at the Cafe de Los Maestros concert. The concert was excellent, it showed that age has no power over passion and skill. This is the impression of Anna Jenkinson: Never before have I seen or heard so much joy during a performance in the Bozar concert hall. […]
Read MoreAfter all the rainy days it was a relief to find the Saturday Kiosque milonga in an enthusiastic summer setting. The effect on the dancers was noticeable: sweaty smiles and an empty bar. Here are some pictures:
Read MoreWednesday saw the visit of Ozgur Demir and Marina Marques in Tangobar. They gave a demo with some acrobatic moves and a very well received milonga.
