Mariano 'Chicho' Frumboli & Juana Sepulveda
Mariano Frumboli, also known as Chicho, has played the main role in the creative evolution of tango in the
last 10 years. It is undoubtly thanks to his extensive artistic background that Chicho was capable of seeing
in tango more than a dance prefixed by strong popular believes. His musical background allowed him to
relate to music differently than his predecesors, he created a unique complicity with the music, a
relationship that no other dancer before has been able to stablish and that was inspirational for the new
generation of tango dancers.
Chicho's theatrical background influenced tango dance also by adding to the dance aesthetics and forms
never used before in tango, and that went directly against the well known rules or matters of the past social
tango dance but that today are used among professionals and amaterus all around the world.
Chicho's work has been one of the biggest gifts that an artist could have given to any art form: the
continuous inquirement, the research, the quest for originality, and full hearted creativity.
Chicho's maind project, alonside with Sebastian Arce and Mariana Montes is working today on puting together a very original show
titled EXODO tangueado to be presented in Europe and Asia, starting on November 2007.
Juana Sepulveda, is one of the youngest recent born stars in the tango sky, she spans the entire range of expression from an innovative
subtlety to a stunning manifestation of power in every movement, always matched by her unswerving musicality and pure sensuality.
