Tango Trivia #3

From October 15 to 17, Iñaki Urlezaga’s dance company, Ballet Concierto, will perform a program of tango and classical dance at the BMCC Tribeca Performing Arts Center. The video above is a taste of the company’s work.

What’s more, TPAC and Tribeca Citizen are partnering for a contest exclusivo. We’ll be asking one tango-related trivia question a week for four weeks, at the end of which we’ll draw two names from the pool of everyone who guessed correctly. The grand prize is dinner for two at Tribeca’s own Industria Argentina—up to $150 on food and a bottle of wine of the restaurant’s choosing!—along with two tickets to the Ballet Concierto show; the runner up wins two tickets to the show.

All you have to do is the email the correct answer to tribecacitizen@gmail.com. (Only one guess per question allowed—which means even if you guessed a previous question, you can do it again.)

A milonga is a…
a) tango step in which the man lifts the woman with his shoulder
b) special shoe used for tango
c) wine-based cocktail traditionally drunk after a tango
d) club where tango is danced

Email your guess to tribecacitizen@gmail.com.

The answers for the previous two questions: People from Buenos Aires are called porteños, and Robert Duvall is the actor who has studied tango.
