VivaTango Newsletter for April






April at VivaTango starts with a European rock star quartet and ends with a second milonga with live music, and in between milongas and lessons featuring a world tango champion and two special DJs. Pictures and details of these events follow later in this newsletter. 

Do you realize how many Tango stars you can see at VivaTango this April. Now expand that by 12 months a year for more than a decade. If you are here every Thursday you will see the whole Tango world. Sadly, the many videos of past performances have not been organized to be shared. A YouTube channel has been started, but it needs a curator to load videos of new performances and to post past history performances. If you are interested please contact me Dennis

Ignacio Ondartz’s health recovery is progressing. Contribution can be made here https://gofund.me/57600166 .
