Julio Balmaceda y Corina de la Rosa
Instructors, dancers and choreographers of Tango
Since 1996 they have had a unique style leading the latest trends in tango and adding to it the traditional ellegance of ‘tango salón’. They combine fluency, fineness, energy and dynamism along with unequalled interpretation of the music.
As specialists in ‘tango vals’ and ‘tango salón’, they have come out on innumerable stages around the world. At present, they are the solo couple of Color Tango Orchestra.
During 1998, they were part of the succesful Broadway production ‘Forever Tango’ whose cast was nominated for the ‘Tony Awards’ as ‘Best Choreography’.
In 1999 they were called to dance in ‘Carnegie Hall’ in New York together with the very virtuous Gary Burton, Pablo Ziegler and Paquito D’Rivera in tribute to the great Astor Piazzolla.
They are summoned to participate as ‘instructors’ in the most prestigious tango festivals in Europe, USA and Japan.
They have their own school in Argentina and take part in all events related to the promotion and spreading of tango in their country.
