BUY: THE MILONGA OF MANOLO

José Maria Salvador (Manolo) and Anneres Gladys Foglia (Coca) present a beautiful and unique version of Argentine milonga developed over the decades by Manolo. This milonga is characterized by its tricky doubletime rhythms and turns. Manolo and Coca danced together from 1991-98, during which time they won a number of informal dance contests in the milongas of Buenos Aires. Each milonguero seems to have his or her moment in the sun during the great tango revival of the 90's. Manolo is one of the last milonga specialists of the older generation still dancing, and has traveled often in Europe. There are more than 20 steps and 5 dance demos. Filmed in 1997 in Buenos Aires. Produced, edited, and translated by Daniel. (approx. 60 mins.)
