On Saturday April 13 and again on Saturday April 27, Fred and Yermen Romero, professional tango instructors in Chicago, are returning to Champaign-Urbana to give tango workshops. The schedule is as follows:
(1) Salon style tango 3:30 - 5 PM This series of workshops will concentrate on: technique for effective leading and following within the standard repertoire of tango patterns, the use of adornments within the context of pattern building, and musicality (the matching of tango patterns to musical phrasing). (2) Vals 5:15 - 6:45 PM This workshop series will explore the unique characteristics of the vals crusado, its style, and its musicality (including syncopation). The same schedule will be followed on Apr 13 and Apr 27. Each workshop is independent, so it is not necessary to have taken Fred & Yermen's workshops during previous visits to attend. Cost (each visit): $20 for 1 workshop, $35 for 2. Location: - Phillips Recreation Center Springfield & McCullough Urbana, IL Urbana, IL is 130 mi south of Chicago, 110 mi west of Indianapolis, and 150 mi northeast of St. Louis. Leonardo
