ABOUT SEBASTIAN:
All my life I have been in love with music and, as a songwriter, developed
a close-to-obsession interest in understanding what is going on beyond the
surface of those many songs and genres that have inspired me throughout my
life. Currently based in the UK, I want to share my porteño cultural
heritage with the people that love the music of Buenos Aires, as a way to
both honour and reward that unique passion and to, through music,
contribute with the building up of the long lasting relationships between British and Argentinian people.

THE LYRICS OF TANGO:
The activity is aimed to take an initial insight into the rich poetry and
lyrics of Tango, a crucial aspect of the genre that is nevertheless
typically unfamiliar to non-Spanish speaking dancers. In a friendly and
relaxed environment we will collectively unveil the expressions and share
the stories behind the classic songs dancers love dancing to. Given the passion and commitment towards Tango shown by UK dancers, it is for sure
that their lifetime dancing experience will be both enhanced and
re-signified once they get into the "other half" of the 2x4.
