You are in for treat at the next Milonga de Corvallis 🍦
We have three special guests joining us!
The night will start off with a presentation by Eugene Lewins, titled Nostalgia in the Culture of Argentine Tango. Eugene has been dancing tango for ten years. He teaches yoga, sings as a bass in choir, and is studying Spanish and Argentine Literature with faculty from the University of Buenos Aires. He has completed three study trips, exploring tango and the broader culture of this amazing city. He will be publishing his latest book this year, Inspiration from Wild Nature: Poems. Eugene was born in England, and the capital of Argentina reminds him of the London of his teenage years. Researching the theme of nostalgia in this European/Hispanic capital, slightly apart in the march of time, feels to him like a very personal journey.
Juan Pablo of Valcan Cellars will be offering wine tastings throughout the night. Check out their story here - https://www.valcancellars.com/
I am excited to welcome back DJ Gonzo 🎧. Gonzalo, with his wife Kahori, host Las Vegas' most popular milonga, the Speakeasy Milonga. Gonzo regularly DJs milongas, as well as Salsa and Bachata, throughout Las Vegas. You definitely don't want to miss these tandas!
