Clínicas de estilo orquestal: El Estilo Aníbal Troilo

The festival offers four clinics for the technical analysis of compositions for typical orchestras.
Form Monday 17 to Wednesday 19, always at 11am, the sessions will delve into the key features of the orchestras of Aníbal Troilo, Carlos Di Sarli and Osvaldo Pugliese, respectively; and the closing session, on Thursday 20, will focus on the analysis of the work of contemporary composers for different tango ensembles. The clinics will be held by Julián Peralta, and a group of students of the Escuela Orlando Goñi will play some exemplifying pieces.

Crepúsculo Rojo

The lives of Michel (Bruno Putzulu), Clara (Marisa Paredes) and David (Féodor Atkine) are marked by a tumultuous past in Buenos Aires which now, in Paris, brings their paths together. This “other side of the world,” that haunts the characters’ present, has left a different mark on each one of them. The stories of the three characters are tragically intertwined without them noticing it.

Tango y Box - Osvaldo Príncipi

Boxing is the sport that has been most related to tango throughout the history of the city of Buenos Aires. It is nearly a century-long relationship that has placed the stars of the ring in the annals of tango history. Moreover, many tango aces hit the ring: among them are Celedonio Flores and Cátulo Castillo, whose skills were registered in many a chronicle. These tangos, made into “video clips,” will be watched and discussed in the 90-minute lecture given by specialised journalist Osvaldo Príncipi. The lecture will provide the opportunity to recall –with official bibliography–
different anecdotes of outstanding tango figures and to evoke, by means of archive material, the close bond between tango and boxing. How did boxing found a place in tango lyrics? Are people aware of the fact that the two disciplines have a shared vocabulary? What is the ranking of favourite tangos with boxingrelated lyrics and how where their authors’ inspired to write them? These are some of the topics to be discussed.
