02-Jun-2022 7:30pm - 11:00pm  - Platinum Jubilee celebration with Joe Powers

04-Aug-2022 8:15pm - 11:00pm

At our Milongas we play mainly traditional Music. Music is organised in 'tandas' (groups) of 3 or 4 songs that are sympathetic to each other in style and era separated by a 'cortina'. Our cortinas are generally a short marked silence as we want tandas to flow and work with each other.

 

Through the evening we organise our tandas following the common pattern of 2 tandas of tango and one tanda of Vals, followed by 2 more of tango and one tanda of milonga. The pattern then repeats (T,T,V,T,T,M,T.T,V,T,T,M, and so on).
