A Tribute to the Milonga |

Presentation
The word milonga, Argentine in origin, can have several meanings, all of which are related to music. The first meaning refers to a ball, featuring a certain type of tango, while the milonga pampeana is a typical tango-like dance, to be found in Uruguay, Brazil and
Argentina. By extension, the Argentine milonga defines a style of dance and music related to flamenco. The programme that Christelle Abinasr has chosen for this recital is therefore imbued both with the radiant joy inherent in this type of music and with melancholy – at
times diffuse and at times extrovert, as though self-regenerating – that can verge on the tragic. All this is nourished by a generous lyricism,
tempered by a closely observed formal framework.
