  • Summary

    Kendra Stepputat examines the choreomusical aspect of tango through an ethnographic lens in European countries. She focuses on one of the currently very popular tango social dance events in Europe called encuentros milongueros, paying particular attention to how these events, originally set up to mimic tango dance environments in Buenos Aires, have developed into translocal/contemporary tango music-dance practice that is particular to Europe. In doing so, she challenges the reader to rethink what it means to call tango a transnational art form, and how this definition is evolving.
