Ruth Roshan & Tango Noir - "Darling ... Keep it to Yourself"
"I had tears in my eyes when I listened to it ... definitely my album of the month." - Trans Europa Express - PBS Radio
"A gorgeous, nerve tingling collection of music." - Roots & Fusion - Pure Radio (UK)

Featuring ... Amir Farid (Piano), Phil Carroll (Accordion), Aaron Barnden (Violin), Sarah Morse (Cello), William Hewer (Cello) and Ruth Roshan (Vocals, Mandolin); with special guest Nick Tsiavos on Bass. In Tango Noir's second all original album, "Darling ... Keep it to Yourself", Ruth uses the rhythms of the cabaret, the Tango, the Habanera, the Waltz, Ruth successfully infuses the album with an atmosphere of 1930s Berlin to create music which is new and nostalgic at the same time. It is a very listenable and beautiful album. Lush arrangements enhance the style, providing a bittersweet flavour when backing her acerbic lyrics. With cabaret undergoing a revival at present, Ruth is an artist who perfectly captures the mood of that style and era on this album

Tango - Townsville

salsaEville Presents S-L-M Argentine Tango Workshops
Workshops Saturday, 14th July 2012 @ the Order of the Eastern Star Hall - 48 Ingham (Service) Road, West End

The Argentine Tango Performance class is for both those that are performing at the Cultural Festival and for those wanting to learn more. The performance at the Cultural Festival will be what we have learnt in the workshops, with extra moves from the lead dancers.

The DVD is the instructions for the performance routine. This will be great for all students as it shows all that is taught in all the workshops so you can practice it at home.

S-L-M is Street Latin Mackay, a branch of DanceFactor

Instructors from S-L-M are also teaming with SalsaEville of Townsville to participate in the Cultural Fest in August with a performance of the Argentine Tango. This will be the first of many workshops presented here so local dancers can learn the Argentine Tango and become involved in a Performance Group to present a Passionate Tango at the Fest in August. So whether you just want to learn the passionate Argentine Tango or you want to be part of the Performance Group, this weekend could be the start of a new passion in your life.
