WELCOME TO THE E-Z THIRTY MINUTE DANCE COURSE VALS: Tango "Style" music danced to the good old 1-2-3 Waltz rhythm. Tango differs somewhat from the Leading and Following techniques of other dances in that there is something called "La Marcacion", or more simply "la Marca". The 'Embrace' represents the union of two caring partners who are determined to enjoy this moment, the music, the floor, the surrounding dancers and each other's company. nfo.net /dance/tprimer.html   (2497 words)

Scandinavian Dance Terms © 1997 by SMF Often the dance rhythm may be indicated in the title, such as vals, schottis, polka, polska, etc., but this may be of little help, even misleading, in determining the exact step or dance best suited to that particular rendition of the music. In dealing with traditional music and dance it should be noted that names of dances and dance rhythms often differ considerably, both among and within the various lands of origin. Rundpolska: Generic Swedish term (rundpols in Norwegian) for polska-type dances which are danced roundabout the floor as in a waltz, rather than in place as in the generic slängpolska (fläckpolska). www.folkdancing.com /Pages/skandia/appx_b.htm   (1987 words)

Edward Grigassy, Latin Carnaval Latin Carnaval specializes in performing authentic music from many regions of Latin America: Tango in the traditional Argentine style, Brazilian Bossa Nova and Samba standards, Cuban Son and Guajira, Venezulean Joropo and Vals, and the Bambuco and Pasillo folk styles of Colombia. With their very diverse backgrounds (Texas, Colombia, Australia, Ukraine and other locales), the members of Latin Carnaval bring a fresh new perspective to their interpretations of the great dance and art music of the western hemisphere. In early 2000, Edward Grigassy (guitar) and Rodrigo Gamboa (guitar, vocals) began working together performing Latin standards and Argentine Tango for live local milongas. guitar.home.texas.net /latcarn.html   (299 words)

Argentine Tango with Lesley Mitchell and Kelly Ray Tango vals utilizes almost the same vocabulary as tango, the biggest difference perhaps being that in response to the music the dancers tend to choose more turning steps, and also to choose not to pause as they frequently do in tango...". Tango, as danced in Buenos Aires, the cosmopolitan capital of Argentina, is an elegant, sensual and intensely connected dance experience. We'll sightsee, hear great music, dance in the best milongas, study with legendary teachers, shop for tango shoes, clothes and recordings, and eat and drink splendidly. home1.gte.net /~vze3sffh/tango.html   (785 words)

18th century Although folksongs and dances had, as rustic showpieces, played an important part in the Hapsburg entertainments for some centuries, it was not until the late 18th century, with the help of their light footwear and polished ballroom, that the Viennese started to transform this folk dance into the smooth gliding participatory 'vals'. The trend to choreograph dances, which started in the late 17th century, continued apace in the early 18th century, and although many compositions were duets for courtly or theatrical display (the courante, sarabande, allemande, gigue and minuet) many were social 'contre dances'. In early 18th century England country dance continued to be enjoyed by all layers of society. www.earthlydelights.com.au /history4.htm   (3093 words)

HTML document for the World Wide Web He was dancing Candombe by the age of 3, and was dancing Tango, Milonga and Creole Vals (the mainstream dances of the time) at 13. In addition to Tango, their speciality is Milonga, Vals and Candombe, and we have taken advantage of that exceedingly rare opportunity by presenting more than the usual number of sessions in these other “Tango-family” dances. (The Candombe is an African dance which was fused with the Cuban Habanera to result in the Milonga, which is in turn the predecessor of the Tango!) www.bostontango.org /prev-special-events/facundo-kely   (1114 words)

Notewort I was invited to dance a vals (waltz) with a tall and elegant milonguero at his 60s, whom I noticed has been very choosy in finding his dance partners for vals. After I danced with a milonguero at his late forties for a set of tango, he asked for another set to follow.

VFest: Border. Tex-Mex conjunto The redowa itself had been transformed into the vals bajito, in contrast to the waltz, which was known as a vals alto. After Longoria's move, most of the older genres -- redowa, schottishe, etc. -- were abandoned as the polka and the vocal, in the form of the canción ranchera (either in vals or polka time), became the staples of the modern conjunto. Indeed, most of the repertory for the dance, or fandango, was of European origin and included the polka, mazurka, and schottishe, in addition to the waltz and redowa. www.folklife.si.edu /frontera/pena.htm   (1707 words)

Texas-Mexican Conjunto The redowa itself had been transformed into the vals bajito, in contrast to the waltz, which was known as a "vals alto." Indeed, most of the repertory for the dance, or fandango, was of European origin and included the polka, mazurka, and schottishe, in addition to the waltz and redowa. Among the most notable is Tony de la Rosa, who established the most ideal conjunto sound in the mid-1950s: a slowed-down polka style, delivered in a highly staccato technique that was the logical culmination of Narciso Martinez's emphasis on the treble end of the accordion. Led by accordionist Paulino Bernal and his brother, bajo sexto player Eloy, El Conjunto Bernal began early on to lift the conjunto style to new heights, as the Bernals' absolute mastery of their instruments allowed the group to probe the very limits of the conjunto style. www.smithsonianeducation.org /migrations/bord/txmxcon.html   (1829 words)

Strictly tango (and NOTHING else)! - Dance Forums My understanding of a milonga is that they may be a tanda (set of 4 tangos), then a tanda by a different orchestra, then a milonga set of 4, followed by another two tandas followed by a set of 4 vals, then another two tango tandas...and so on. Between tandas, AT DJs usually play "undanceable" music to empty the floor. M'am Samba, I suggest that you dance the cortinas. www.dance-forums.com /viewtopic.php?topic=3956   (1829 words)

Peruvian Folklore The lush, romantic character of the Viennese waltz is absent in the vals criollo, notwithstanding the themes of love frequently found in the latter. Andean music can be lively and danceable, as is the huayno, or have the soft sound of a lament, like that of the yaraví, but it always conveys the feel of the high mountains: of sparse, open spaces, few trees, thin air, and cool sunshine. The descendants of the Africans still form a significant part of the population, and, not surprisingly, have left the imprint of their traditions on the music and dance of Peru. www.lafi.org /magazine/articles/peru-folk.html   (415 words)

Music of Peru The criolla music of the coastal region is represented by the marinera, vals criolla, bolero, cumbia, tango, alcatraz, festejo, polka, and even rock and roll styles. From the coastal towns come musics that are less specifically Peruvian, popular latin and Caribbean dance styles played with an adroit mix of guitars, mandolins and horns, Mexican-influenced vocal trios, and Beto Boachet’s pleasantly archaic rock ‘n’ roll band. Some of the music also reflects Peru’s African population, which, as in so much of the Americas, was far more influential than its relatively small numbers would suggest. www.arhoolie.com /titles/400.shtml   (473 words)

Tango Dance Tango Music Tango History - totaltango.com By the 1940s Tango, Milonga and Vals were inseparable partners, and the three different faces of the same music and dance give Tango its extraordinary depth and richness of expression. The term Tango Milonga was coined (and Canaro claims in his autobiography to be the one who coined it), to mean Tango for the milonga, that is Tango designed to be danced to. With the emergence of sung Tangos, and of Tango Fantasía, orchestral Tangos designed to be listened to rather than danced to, it became necessary to differentiate on records and sheet music the different styles. www.totaltango.com /acatalog/tango_milonga_vals_92.html   (473 words)

Tango Downtown workshops It is a social style that emphasizes musicality and the connection of the partners using compact choreography that creatively employs the limited space of the social dance floor, and a rich and complex form of subtle body signals that profoundly respects tango’s rhythms. Susana Miller is a renowned teacher of the Milonguero (or Apilado) Style, the tango danced in the crowded clubs of central Buenos Aires. That said, we can tell you that Susana always works intently with the music, and often will apply the same sequence to different orchestras and to the music of tango, milonga and vals — we'll be spotlighting this in Monday's class. www.tangodowntown.net /workshops.html   (473 words)
