Cuesta Invisible at Aarhus Jazz Festival

Tango and jazz in beautiful and danceable unison Cuesta Invisible has found its expression in the narrow streets of the tango, the small side streets of Buenos Aires, where the tango feels at home, but which the guide recommends walking by. Nevertheless, one is tempted to follow the inciting music into different backyard.Now and again, tango pops up in public places and on larger stages in new guises outside of Argentina. One example is Cuesta Invisible, an unconventional tango crew, who have chosen to interpret the part of the tango closest to jazz while leaving room for the musicians as soloists. This is also the part of the tango that is exciting to interpret on the dance floor.The repertoire is a mix of interpretations of tango standards, tango interpretations of other standards, and original compositions by Jens Balder and Niels Vincentz....

Tango og jazz i skøn og dansabel foreningCuesta Invisible har fundet sit udtryk i tangoens smalle gader, de små sidegader i Buenos Aires, hvor tangoen føler sig hjemme, men som guiden anbefaler, at man går forbi. Ikke desto mindre frister de, så man alligevel følger den inciterende musik ind i anden baggård.I ny og næ dukker tangoen op på offentlige pladser og større scener samt, i nye klæder, uden for Argentina. Et eksempel er Cuesta Invisible, i tangosammenhænge en utraditionel besætning, der har valgt at fortolke den del af tangoen, som ligger jazzen nærmest og giver plads til musikerne som solister. Det er samtidig den del af tangoen, som er spændende at være med til at fortolke på dansegulvet.Repertoiret er en blanding af fortolkninger af tangostandarder, tangofortolkninger af andre standarder og originale kompositioner af Jens Balder og Niels Vincentz.
