The Joy of Tango 探戈的樂趣
你可能會注意到,Alej 和 Alito 在裡面犯了好幾個明顯的錯誤。
但我能說什麼呢?探戈的本質就是享受樂趣,
而他們兩個跳得那麼開心,我根本無法捨棄這段。
即使他們彼此絆到、踩錯拍子,看起來都忍不住想笑。
再說,那音樂!
如果聽了不會讓你想立刻站起來跳舞,
那你可能該去找另一個興趣了。
這是 2004 年秋天的一個下午,
Alito 和 Alejandra 在 Lo de Celia’s 隨著 Biaggi 的音樂,
輕盈地在舞池中滑動。
作業說明:
請運用你受過訓練的眼光,觀察並指出 Alito 如何以不同的方式「玩音樂」。
你能描述他如何用一種方式表現 節奏(compás),又以另一種方式表現 旋律(melody) 嗎?
同時,請討論在探戈中「保持放鬆與身體中心穩定」的重要性。

原文:
This always happens. I start out with a great plan, but then I come across a different piece of film and get sidetracked. I was going to use a short clip of Alito dancing with another milonguera to demonstrate something or other—but then I found this one, and I had to use it instead. I realize it’s too long, it doesn’t show what I wanted… and you’ll probably notice that Alej and Alito make several obvious mistakes. But what can I say? Tango's about having fun, and Alej and Alito seem to be enjoying themselves so much that I couldn’t leave it out. Even when they trip each other up, they look like they can barely keep from laughing. And the music! If it doesn’t make you want to jump up and start dancing, it’s time to look for another hobby.
Here are Alito and Alejandra floating around Lo de Celia's with Biaggi on a fall afternoon in 2004: (上面的影片)
Homework assignment: Use your trained eye to identify different ways Alito plays with the music. Can you describe how he expresses the compás in one way, and the melody in another? Discuss the importance of staying relaxed and centered.
