Meredith Klein, Ines Muzzopappa · 58 min · 0 chapters
Recorded at her home/studio in Buenos Aires, host Meredith Klein interviews Ines Muzzopappa for Tango Stories. Ines describes how tango entered her life through her mother, a dancer who ran a summer milonga in Vicente López, and how at 14 she began taking her own classes at Club Sunderland. She shares the story of competing in the Tango Salón World Championship with a last-minute borrowed dress, and how she later combined her dance career with university studies in sociology.
Meredith Klein, Fabián Salas, Lola Díaz, Emiliano Messiez · 54 min · 0 chapters
Radio host Meredith Klein interviews, by phone, three headliners of the 9th Philly Tango Festival (May 2019). Fabián Salas and Lola Díaz talk about CITA's twenty-one years, the Premios Tango they founded, and how Salas built a teaching pedagogy from scratch as tango professionalised. Pianist and arranger Emiliano Messiez then talks about founding the Típica Messiez, a new ten-piece orquesta típica set to debut at the festival. Two songs play between the segments: Último Tango en Buenos Aires by Rubén Juárez, chosen by Salas and Díaz, and a recording by Raúl Jaurena's Uruguayan orchestra.
