Uruguayan pianist/producer Polly Ferman is proud to present GlamourTango, a unique all-female multi-media music and dance show that pays tribute to the women who quietly wrote the pages of Tango from the very beginning and, until now, have not been recognized for their contributions to the irresistible art form. The show includes fascinating and rarely seen black and white films from Argentina, recorded in the early forties, featuring female singers and tango dancers. Polly Ferman has created and produced this stylish production of tango music and dance from South America's Rio de la Plata region, performed by an ensemble of musicians, vocalists and dancers who specialize in the art of Tango. Wednesday May 11, 7 PM, at The Cutting Room, 44 East 32 Street, NYC.
GlamourTango was premiered in Uruguay in 2008 and has since been performed in Argentina and Brazil, Colombia, China and in the U.S. in Chicago , Milwaukee and New York. The all-female cast includes musicians, dancers and vocalist from South America, the U.S., Korea, Cuba and Germany on piano, double bass, bandoneon, guitar, violin and a singer . Music includes compositions by famed tango composers Astor Piazzolla, Horacio Salgan, Anselmo Aieta, Pintin Castellanos, Rosita Quiroga, Enrique Mendizabal, Daniel Binelli, and more.
