The UCSD Argentine Tango Club invites you to participate in the Tango Music Jam led by Homer Ladas, who will be providing a hands-on introduction to Tango music for musicians. Spectators are more than welcome to attend.
Date & Time: Sunday, February 24th at 6:00 - 8:00 pm
Location: Price Center Ballroom
Cost: Free
Details: The format involves musicians playing a tango piece or two with Homer's guidance on arrangement/rhythm/execution/etc. The goal is to play it so that dancers can enjoy dancing to it. As an extra learning tool we will listen to a sample recording of classic tango music, talk about it, and then try 'stylistically' to emulate it.
You can find general information about Homer's tango jam sessions here: http://www.organictangosf.info/musicjam_SF.htm
We can send anyone interested a few emails of college students in the Bay Area who are part of SF's tango jam sessions so you can contact them directly and evaluate the jam idea from another perspective.
