The very successful Experiencia Tangorra is an electrotango orchestra from Buenos Aires. They will play again in Amsterdam at Ezequiel Sanucci’s Birthday Milonga celebration. We will also have the chance to dance traditional and neotango music by four international top DJs and the beautiful live music of two top neoclassical musicians.
Ezequiel is turning 53 years old and he wants to celebrate it by bringing all his tango, neotango friends together. It will be a celebration of life and diversity where we can dance, make a picnic, take drinks and have a swim during a lovely summer afternoon at one of the most special areas of Amsterdam.
If someone wants to learn tango, at the start of the event Ezequiel will teach a beginner tango workshop. So, this it’s a great chance to learn the first steps and to get to know the tango atmosphere.
The location is at the amazing Marineterrein in Amsterdam with small green spaces where you can have a picnic and swim at the harbor. We will not have a bar, so bring your own food and drinks and we can share it as a potluck.
The dress code is summer tango clothing, casual, festive, party costume, and you can even dance in a swimsuit / bikini if you want.

As a DJ, his music is characterised by its energy and known for keeping the dancers emotionally engaged, to the point of intoxication, that is why he is known as: El Tabernero.
Saskia Frankena – Neotango
Saskia is purely a Neotango DJ. In her sets she uses all kinds of music, if danceable.
She likes to use lyrical music, music that tells a story, with some drama, some gloominess and several layers in the music to play with. Serving the dancers in their expression is what her sets are about.
Her mantra while DJ-ing Neotango is: “ Same soul, different sounds”
