La Tipica Roulotte Tango.
This is the second time that Roulotte Tango has been invited to the Tangopostale Festival. In 2010, in a corner of the Place du Capitole, on a sunny Saturday afternoon, they played for a few dancers and many bystanders.
Today, the Roulotte Tango group has gained maturity after many performances all over France as well as in Belgium, Germany and Argentina. This now well-known group of about ten musicians from the Rhone Alpes region, propose concerts, milongas, conferences, recordings and stage productions of various types of music and styles.
They will be playing at Mermoz in a Tipica configuration of 8 musicians, including 3 bandoneons.

Since 2001 she has musicalised the most emblematic and famous milongas in Buenos Aires.
She has participated in major festivals in Argentina and Uruguay, and has musicalised the most important milongas in Europe during her latest trips. The programme for her 2014 tour is particularly busy with a visit to Italy, as well as France, Germany, Austria, Greece, Portugal and Sweden, etc.

A couple of guest maestros to round off the evening in beauty:
Barbara Carpino and Claudio Forte
A couple of the most charismatic tango dancers of their generation, who will be coming directly from Italy where they have been living for a number of years.
For about the last twelve years, they have been travelling around the world to perform in the largest tango festivals and events. They have formed their own tango school and the Syracuse festival in Italy.
They select the music for their demonstrations only 10 minutes before they go on stage to perform! This is how they keep intact the emotion and passion that they want to share with the audience.
