MORE ABOUT LUCIANO AND ALEJANDRA:
Born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, Luciano Brigante’s first introduction to the art of dancing the tango began when he studied with Aldo and Chimbela Diácno, milongueros of Villa Urquiza (the Argentine neighborhood with a strong traditional style), who provided the broad-ranging basic elements that were the foundation for his future tango career. Building on that experience, Luciano began an intense learning process, during which the great master, Jorge Dispari, gave him the keys that helped him discover the best way to dance tango on stage and in the milonga.
Luciano continued his formal training with the excellent dancers and teachers Vanina Bilous, Carlos and Rosa Perez, and Cuauhtemoc Najera, the former director of the national dance company in Mexico. He also focused his energies on stage tango (tango scenario) with the teacher, Doris Petroni, a former dancer at the Teatro Colon in Buenos Aires and choreographer of Teatro General San Martín, to learn even more about theatrical and choreographic expression.
In addition, his main mentors have been the "teachers of teachers", Jorge Dispari and "Turkish" Maria del Carmen, José Lampazo, Turco Jose, Mauricio Castro, Pablo Veron, Gustavo Naveira, whose comprehensive approach and analytical system of instruction influenced his current interpretative technique and methods of teaching.
Alejandra Orozco has combined her stage experience in Tango Escenario and Tango Fantasia to fashion a traditionally dramatic exhibition style. She and Luciano implement distinctive methods of instruction, enriched by their knowledge in the field of communication and psychology, to revolutionize the way we see, feel, hear and experience the Argentine tango.
Luciano and Alejandra exemplify the Villa Urquiza style of tango with their elegance, smoothness and precision in walking. Their elegant dancing reflects great accuracy, tradition, strength and dynamism.
