THE 2016 STOWE TANGO MUSIC FESTIVAL ANNOUNCES THE
THIRD ANNUAL TANGO MUSIC FESTIVAL WITH SPECIAL CLASSES AND APPEARANCES BY “DANCING WITH THE STARS”
MIRIAM LARICI & LEONARDO BARRINONUEVO
August 18 - 21, 2016
Off the heels of a successful second annual year, The Argentine Tango Society is bringing Tango to the greater Stowe, Vermont area once again, as it presents the 2016 Stowe Tango Music Festival. The Festival’s mission is to create accessibility to Tango, and to tell the Tango story--as a culture-- through music, dance, art, and community events.
Stowe Tango Music Festival is the premier tango music festival in the United States, noted both for its unique series of performances and its high level of musical training. The Festival's highlight is the 20 plus piece tango orchestra comprised of an extraordinary group of selected students from all over the globe and world-class artists including guest tango legends from Argentina. This year, The Stowe Tango Music Festival Concert will feature breathtaking performances by top tango dancers, Ana Padron & Diego Blanco, and Miriam Larici & Leonardo Barrionuevo – the champions of NBC's "Superstars of Dance" and the choreographers of "Dancing with the Stars", "America's Got Talent" and "So You Think You Can Dance".
The Festival is the brainchild of Argentinean Bandoneon player Hector Del Curto, who serves as Artistic Director, and, at the age of 17, was awarded the title, “Best Bandoneon Player Under Twenty-five” in Argentina and is a third generation professional Bandoneon musician. Del Curto is the thread that weaves together Traditional and New Tango and lives, breathes, and edifies the full history of Tango. The Stowe Tango Music Festival is the realization of a vision that strives to bring this historic knowledge and artistic passion to everyone.
The Stowe Tango music festival will include the opportunity for immersion in Tango through performances, music programs, dance workshops, milongas and family-friendly events. With the breathtaking backdrop of Vermont, beautiful as is Argentina, this nascent music festival fully intends to continue to grow, and hopes to make Stowe, VT The Tango Capital of the United States!
