March 26, 2023 @ 00:00


 

Tango with Winnie & Christine Brebes is roadtripping with joy and full equipment to play tango anywhere between Chicago and the Atlantic Coast!  Stopping to play some tango for everyone at Bicycle Bro Coffee, Rochester NY, after our workshop at the Eastman School of Music, Winnie’s alma mater!

Bicycle Brothers Coffee is a wonderful community space for yoga, coffee, bagels, pizza and events!  See you there with some tango on Wednesday, March 29, 5-6:30pm!

If you do not know Christine Brebes, you must make an effort to come see us play!  Christine is one of the pioneer of US tango musicians who moved to Buenos Aires 20 years ago to blaze a path for not only US tango musicians, but most importantly for FEMALE tango musicians from all over the world!  Winnie was inspired by Christine since Day 1, and she will be hosting this goddess of tango across the US from March to April, 2023!  Still open for bookings!!

Christine Brebes will also be on faculty for 2023 Tanguero Workshop for Musicians, a weeklong musician’s conference open to all genres and levels of musicians:  https://workshop.moretango.org/

Short blurb by Christine:
I moved to Buenos Aires in 2002 to play in La Orquesta Escuela de Tango, led by the most talented Emilio Balcarce. We learned lots of styles from the living masters of tango that still graced us with their presence. We played in Teatro Colon. We recorded. It was a magical time. Since then, I have traveled to play tango in Japan, Italy, England and the US. I’ve played in orquesta tipicas with Julian Plaza, Victor Lavallen, Sexteto Mayor, musicians that played with Miguel Calo (La Orquesta Tipica Sans Souci). I’ve had the pleasure of playing in the touring tango shows: Tango Dreams, Tango x 2 de Miguel Angel Zotto, and Roberto Herrera & Compañia. I’ve recorded with quite a lot of tango musicians, all of whom I deeply admire and respect. I enjoy teaching different tango techniques to visitors who make the same pilgrimage as I have. I’ve also taught some tango master classes in Los Angeles. I am so looking forward to bringing all this back with me to share with all of you! If you would like to see a bit about my life here in Buenos Aires, I’d love to share this video with you that was recorded as part of a series on public television called Tango y La Ciudad (Tango and The City). https://youtu.be/ZwtWlOS3Xkk
