Published on June 18, 2010 in Brussels, milonga and News. 0 Comments

It’s that time of the year again! Dirk and me continue Olivier’s initiative of organizing open-air milongas in the kiosque of the Parc de Bruxelles / Warandepark. This year, they start on July 10th, and from then on every 2 weeks until the last one, on September 4th. We start at 17h and continue dancing until 23h. Drinks are available on site. DJs wil be Dirk and Nina (and maybe some guest appearance).

Hope to see you all at the kiosque this summer!

Milonga @ Kiosque 2010

La Cantante launch party

Published on June 2, 2010 in music and News. 2 Comments

La Cantante de Tango is now on the screens (in Brussels: Vendome, Antwerp: Cartoon’s, Gent: Sphinx, Liege: Sauveniere, Namur: Cameo2). I was at the avant-premiere and the milonga afterwards at the Bouche-à-Oreille.

Three good reasons to see the movie:

  • the music: all the songs Helena (Eugenia) sings in the movie are recorded live, no tricks, no dubbing and it makes the music so real you can almost touch it.
  • the images: Diego tells the story with beautiful images: as if every scene was painted by hand so it would be perfect. The streets of Buenos Aires, the beach at Boulogne, the theatres …
  • the dancers: the scenes recorded at Nosotros are filled with faces you know. We know you’re curious, so go check them out.

Brussels Tango Festival - LesBains (9)
We’ve just launched the Brussels Tango Festival forum, where visitors to the 2010 edition of the Brussels Tango Festival (1 Apr – 5 Apr) can post their questions:

  • “I’m looking for a tango partner, leader, advanced, for X and Y workshop.”
  • “I’m coming to Brussels for 3 days, could I stay at some tanguero/tanguera’s place?”

The festival starts in about 6 weeks, so this is a good time to start planning your lodging and your workshops. The updates on the forum will also appear on this site, and will be included in our weekly newsletter to almost 500 tango dancers.

For the Belgian tango dancers, if you want to practice your spanish or meet interesting people from all over the world, this is your chance to show off the famous Belgian hospitality!
