Primavera Porteña

The tango remains one of the most passionate and intimate forms of dance; it inspires a surrendering of the mundane to a realm of heightened awareness and experience. Piazzolla’s spicy Primavera Porteña (which literally means “spring season”) conjures up the bold energy of springtime. The piece opens with a dizzying fugue, then proceeds with the menace of a conflicted love affair. To capture the seductive and complex spirit of this tango, we created a cinematic, James Bond-inspired music video that highlights the “fancy footwork” of our constantly crossing—and dancing!—hands and arms.

Let Primavera Porteña take you on a riveting ride: feel free to lose yourself to the music's pounding aggression, luxuriate in a haze of mystery, and finally get carried away to the precipice of desire.
