Each day will provide a variety of activities, including classes, private lessons, small ensemble coachings, orquesta típica rehearsals, master classes. Additional community activities provides a diverse immersion in tango music, dance, culture, and history — past and present. Eligibility Open to Age 12+ on Bandoneón, Strings (Violin, Viola, Cello, Bass) and Piano. We welcome all levels of players. The Tanguero Workshop has a place for every tango musician. Seasoned tangueros come to share ideas with others from around the globe, to get access to unique tango resources, and to play and study with world-renowned tango maestros. Those newer to tango are quickly swept into a multifaceted tango experience, learning solid idiomatic tango technique for their instrument, and participating in different elements of tango culture in a supportive, community environment. All attendees, amateur to professional, are matched with people of similar levels. Although we do not require a formal audition to be accepted to this workshop, newcomers are asked for a 10-15 minutes quick Skype chat so that we can assign you the right materials.
