PABLO VERON y NOEL STRAZZA    
Pablo y Noel  



The embodiment of style, elegance and creative movement.
 


Pablo Veron burst onto the international stage as the choreographer and perfectly cast star of the 1997 film The Tango Lesson (Sony Classics).

Two years later, he appeared in the Broadway revival and tour of Tango Argentino, partnering Guillermina Quiroga.

Watching Pablo perform in person is a privilege. Particularly appealing is his calm flow.

He is so smooth, so anti-cliché, that one wonders if the un-initiated even appreciate the technical mastery he exhibits. His understatement and subtlety are as what we appreciate in great artists of any genre.

His inventiveness had given him a significant place in tango history, as a choreographer, teacher and dancer even before he became an international star via the film.

He has that star quality about him. He looks young. He has everything creative, sensual and elegant about Argentine tango in his back pocket.

He takes his partner and you are riveted.

The song begins, the dancers move - but not as in a competition like so much choreography. A slow build, inexorably headed for a dynamic explosion - but when? - invites the watcher to enter the trance. Tango moments. You can't take your eyes off him. But, now you have to watch Noel. As the song develops, she looms larger and larger in your awareness.

The enchanting movement lulled you. You thought you weren't going to see furious leg dialog and turns of speed. Wrong. The turns are breath-taking. The song's climax is phenomenal. (You may be reminded of the original excitement you felt when you first saw tango ... when you wondered, "How can they do that?")

Noel is a beautiful dancer. In those simple words is no higher compliment.

When I have seen Pablo and Noel dance his choreography, it has looked like perfection.

His classes are challenging and rewarding.

Constantly travelling the world as one of the most in-demand teachers, Pablo and Noel, also from Argentina, are based in Montréal.
