Noche de Bohemia: Tango No Es Solo Baile, Esperanza, Friday, May 30, 6-9 pm
Gerardo Razumney says of his tango presentation at our next Noche de Bohemia (Friday, May 30, 6 pm at Esperanza): “Tango is the language of Buenos Aires. We will explore the various ways to converse in that language. We will find what ideas and feelings are expressed in that language. We will look at the different ways of using that language – dancing, singing, playing the music, writing a poem.”
Esperanza is located at the corner of N. 5th St and Bristol St in Philly. Parking is behind the Esperanza building on Bristol Street.
Future Noches de Bohemia will feature traditions from Peru (June), Colombia (August), and other Latin American countries!
