Astor Piazzolla Episode 3

Author: Pod Xperience Network April 9, 2019 Duration: 1:06:22
Astor Piazzolla's early childhood in the mean streets of NY taught him to defend his musical vision fiercely against all odds and criticism.

There's a rhythm to Buenos Aires that you can feel in its streets, and at its heart is the tango. Tango Angeles from the Pod Xperience Network is an invitation to move beyond the familiar steps and into the soul of this captivating art form. Each episode is a journey, one where the rich history of the music is unpacked alongside the personal stories of those who live and breathe it. You'll hear from musicians dissecting the melancholy bandoneón, dancers explaining the unspoken conversation of the embrace, and historians tracing the genre's journey from the barrios to the world stage. This isn't just a lecture; it's an immersive audio experience where the music itself is a central character, playing uninterrupted so you can truly feel its emotional pull. We explore the indelible passion that defines tango culture, the controversies over its evolution, and the quiet moments of connection it fosters in dance halls from South America to Los Angeles. Tune into this podcast for a deep, resonant appreciation of how tango continues to pulse with life, telling stories of love, loss, and resilience through every note and every movement.
