At La Baldosa, one of our favourite "couples" milongas, we were fortunate to see the newly crowned champions of Tango Salón dance four pieces for the crowd. Suffice to say that the 18 year old Sebastian and 29 year old María Ines are deserving title-holders.
The romantic Di Sarli tango was followed by an energetic tango by D'Arienzo, a Caló vals and after rousing applause, a Canaro milonga.
What a treat!
