Tango or cleated shoes, with skirt or no skirt pit without pit, Tango is in the air. And women want to be part of the air. morning, within the framework of the XV Meeting Metropolitano de Tango, first in Rosario, 9 contemporary singers and songwriters come together to share their music between waltzes citizen, milongas and candombes in a single night. The appointment will be at 20, at the Music Shed (Paseo de las Artes and the river) and free entry and free. “The idea is to make visible women”, He said in dialogue with Stage Evelina Sanzo, singer and manager of this move, could be the spearhead of several coupled more.
“Ladie's Night”. Is the title of the show tomorrow in which it is announced “New rosarinas Milonga tango composers of Desire”. They are Veronica Muñoz, Evelina Sanzo, Eugenia Lazarte Garralda, Joselina Casadei, Gisela Stival, Dani Lesté, Mercedes Drinks, Majo Clutet and Ayelén Prado, who will be accompanied by guitarist Julian “Paper” Cicerchia and pianist Victoria Aiello, with guest artists.
Everything will start from the 20 with class “Tango genderless” entitled “Two wishes at stake”; to 21 It will be the concert of rosarinas tangueras; to 22 The closure will be with “Milonga of desire” and a performance by Collective stirs Tango (Natalia Mazza, Mariana Brown, Ines Otero, Ratti and Gisela Gisela Basaldella), with dance partner Gio composed of Bellonia and Lucia Be.
“Clearly there is a germ in the city tanguero”, said Evelina Sanzo, who said that this show came almost by accident. “They called us to a table of tango with a gender perspective for the Book Fair of Rosario and then I asked if I knew girls who compose tango. I had some facts, names started to happen between us and together 9, but surely there are many more”, said local singer.
Sanzo became known as Evelyn, when he participated in the second edition of “Triumph operation” in Telefe in 2004, but then he made his way in other pursuits further from pop and has already released two solo albums “Curandera” Y “Taboo”, besides being one of the chosen by Fito Paez for choruses in some of her shows.
Member of the Women's Collective of Rosario and very identified with gender, Sanzo said that while women gathered in tangueras was almost asaroza, it is no coincidence that this cultural and social arise when such proposals. “We went out to sing the same for questioning the role and the place given to women in the tango, both lyrically and in the composition and dance. Why the man has to take the woman in dance? I too like it, for example, even in that tango was macho”, he said.
Receptivity about what they expect to have the most classic and orthodox tangueros, he highlighted: “Always they are purists who you are going to question everything, but for example it would have to ask why one should not dance in heels and slippers; or rethink harmony and song lyrics. There will always be people who resist, in this group are all girls between 30 Y 40 years, and it is good that gender is open and give us these spaces that were previously exclusive to men”.
according to Evelina, labels do not do anything well to music and less creativity. “I think that should not be labeled, at the least I feel that way, If I did just bored me trova, o tango funk, I do what I feel and ready”, he said, adding that his tangueras companions are also in the same line:”Dani Lesté I sing comes from chamamé, Garralda is Euge Song, Joselina makes tango, True is folklore, Majo is more than trova and pop. But all are traversed by the tango, rock and pop”.
To reaffirm that there are no borders in music, graphic: “Out there I I meet a lady of 80 years tells me that he likes a song of mine rock or chique of 15 that drink with a tango. Music transcends genres, ages and ages. And this, duly, It is a wonderful time, beautiful and revolutionary”.
He concluded: “It's beautiful to feel crossed by the tango and it is good that you do not miss. They are to be fed brotecitos”.
