Tango Obsessed
Project Summary:*
Please provide us with a brief summary of your project.
Camarada presents a sizzling and passionate performance of tango music, song and dance in the program
Tango Obsessed. Camarada has been performing tango concerts for over a decade and audience members will
"step" into the streets of Argentina. Tango Obsessed takes you on a journey of “tango time travel” with
compositions by Carlos Gardel, Horacio Salgan, Anibal Troilo, and the unequivocal Astor Piazzolla. Music
composed and arranged by internationally known bassist and native Argentinian Andrés Martin will also be
featured in the program. Andrés Martin, double bass, has performed tango around the world and is a member
of this talented quartet of musicians. Flutist Beth Ross Buckley, violinist David Buckley and pianist Dana
Burnett complete the musical ensemble performing this enticing repertoire with captivating arrangements
unmistakably original. Carolina Jaurena leads the masterful tango team from New York embracing the
sensuality and sassiness of tango while keeping faithful to the magical embrace that makes tango the world’s
most expressive dance. Baritone Gregorio González will be a highlight to this amazing concert adding his
vocal expertise to the astoundingly beautiful music of Argentina. This concert in Carlsbad will precede
Camarada’s tango tours to Arizona, New Mexico, Uruguay, and Argentina in the spring of 2023. Carlsbad
audiences will experience an unforgettable evening merging music, dance, and song at Tango Obsessed.

Previous Project Success:
If your organization has completed a similar project, please provide details of the project and why it was
successful.
In February 2020, as part of the library series, Tango Camarada performed at the Schulman Auditorium for a
capacity audience. After a standing ovation encore requests were granted.
Camarada presents one new tango themed concert per season to sell-out or near capacity audiences.
Camarada was established in 1994 by Beth Ross Buckley, and has grown from a few concerts a year to a
thriving non-profit performing over 25 concerts annually to audiences of all sizes, up to 450 per concert. For
the past 4 years, Camarada has been operating on a larger scale now presenting a successful 3-concert series
at The Conrad, La Jolla since 2019. This ensemble has been artists-in-residence at the Mingei International
Museum, Balboa Park for over 10 years. During the renovation of the Mingei Camarada performed their
Balboa Park series at the Museum of Photographic Arts 2018-2021. Two other series are located at Bread &
Salt, Barrio Logan for 8 years and a new series was added, “Music of the Americas" at UC San Diego Park &
Market in 2021.
Project Distinction:
What makes this project distinctive?
Tango Obsessed is a multifaceted program exhibiting music, dance, and song in a historical context. This
unique tango program features tango through the ages, including compositions and arrangements by Andrés
Martin - a world-renowned composer and bassist. Andrés will bring his tango expertise in performance and
narration. Camarada has performed tango for over two decades, recently adding Andrés Martin as resident
composer and bassist. This ensemble is committed to furthering the evolution of tango, performing an
extensive repertoire list that spans all eras of tango history up to the present day and features original
compositions by resident composer Martín. In the spring of 2022, the San Diego Symphony performed and
featured Andrés Martin’s Concerto for Double Bass on a series concert.
Camarada is covering all expenses for travel and housing for the New York-based tango dancers, Tijuana-
based composer and bassist and Texas-based baritone. Along with the local Camarada musicians, this
combination of guest artists is unique and magnetic. These guest artists will be in San Diego for a
performance at The Conrad Prebys Performing Arts Center in the first week of February, making this timing
essential for a cost-effective budget. This schedule allows Camarada to perform this concert free to the public
with the award of this grant.
Project Goals:
What are the goals (outputs and/or outcomes) of the project? How will you measure your goals?
Tango Obsessed will provide an extraordinary cultural experience for the citizens of North County and
Carlsbad at no cost to them. The audience will experience an Argentinian showcase of tango repertoire
combining music, dance, and song by an ensemble that normally does not perform in North County.

Dana Burnett, pianist, and Associate Artistic Director of Camarada is a resident of Carlsbad. Residents of
North County are always inquiring when Camarada will perform in North County. This program highlights
dance, an artistic medium underserved at the presentations at the Carlsbad Library. Carolina Jaurena's tango
dance expertise brings a wealth of experience from international festivals to film. Vocalist Gregorio González,
a native of Mexico seamlessly connects this collaboration of musicians and dancers in a community that has a
strong Latin contingency. The Camarada musicians have been performing tango for many years and this
concert precedes their tour of South America.
The goal of this concert is to present a rare opportunity to hear, enjoy and learn about tango for North County
residents, free of charge, with this energizing program of tango music, dance, and song. We anticipate no
empty seats, and the outcome will be judged by audience attendance and enthusiasm.
Target Population:
Who is your target population and why? How will you reach them?
Our target audience members are the citizens of Carlsbad and North County, all ages. This concert will not
have a ticket fee, so the public is invited. This concert explores the Music of Argentina and South America with
music, dance and song. Narration by performance members enlightens and educates the audience on the
history of the music and dance. Something for everyone of all ages to enjoy.
Camarada will utilize its own social media platforms to advertise-Facebook, twitter, Instagram promoting the
concert. Camarada will also produce posters and distribute them throughout North County. Posters and
postcards will be placed at both Carlsbad Libraries inviting the public to attend. The City of Carlsbad will also
advertise our concerts through their media platforms.

Due to Covid-19, earned income fell 40% from FY20 to FY21 as we lost concert ticket sales. We generated
new program income by adding a Livestream option, which helped offset lost income. Grant support was also
down, as lack of tourism income affected the City of San Diego (SD) and County of SD program funds. We
recovered contributed income through emergency support from the California Small Business COVID-19
Relief Grant Program and a new grant from The Conrad Prebys Foundation. Our individual donors and
business sponsors continued supporting us and we were able to return to in-person performances, develop

capturing the feeling of our artists– that we had to keep creating and connecting, no matter the
circumstances. FY22 was our best year yet as we worked hard and grew from three to four venues and
expanded our reach.

Baritone, Gregorio González began his solo operatic career in 2002 after being hired as a
resident artist at the Los Angeles Opera by Plácido Domingo. He has sung extensively throughout the
United States, his native Mexico, and Europe. At Los Angeles Opera, Mr. González created the roles of
Count Obolenski and Avdeev in the world premiere of Nicholas and Alexandra under Mstislav
Rostropovich. He made his European debut at Amsterdam’s prestigious Concertgebouw in 2006 with a
concert version of Donizetti’s Poliuto, conducted by Giuliano Carella, and later returned to sing in Verdi’s
Otello, conducted by Jaap Van Zweden. Mr. González has won First Place awards at the Gerda Lissner,
Violetta Dupont, Palm Springs Opera Guild, La Jolla Symphony and Chorus Young Artists, Metropolitan
Opera Western Region Auditions, and Virginia Hawk competitions as both a tenor and a baritone and

Camarada’s Forgivable Obsession
with Tango
By Ken Herman | February 25, 2022 | 0
Tango Obsessed, the catchy title of Camarada’s Thursday chamber concert at The Conrad in La Jolla,
might be Beth Ross Buckley’s personal confession. After all, as the ensemble’s Artistic Director, by
my count this is her fourth Camarada tango extravaganza since 2018, and the third year in a row she
has presented tango at The Conrad.

But even if you are not as tango obsessed as Ms. Buckley, it would be difficult to complain about the
ensemble’s sparkling musicianship, the dancers’ fleet, sexy moves, and the overall joie de vivre this
spirited combination evokes.
Thursday’s all-tango program presented requisite servings of Astor Piazzolla, the popular originator
of nuevo tango, as well as the premiere of a commission, Abrazar al Viento (Embracing the Wind) by
Andrés Martin, the ensemble’s fleet bass player. When I think of Piazzolla’s tangos, his agitated
rhythms and vibrant, complex textures immediately come to mind, and Camarada’s brisk accounts of
his Escualo and Libertango filled that bill quite nicely. In Libertango, Dana Burnett confidently drove
the pulsing piano track, gracing it with her crisp, seamless glissandos, while dancers Carolina
Jaurena and Marcelo created a saucy, athletic tango to match its carefree mood.

Piazzolla’s Soledad (Solitude) proved that the popular Argentine composer was more than a party
animal. The dusky character of Beth Ross Buckley’s mesmerizing flute solos in Soledad floated with
languorous ease over deft pizzicato support from Martin’s bass and Fred Benedetti’s guitar. In JC
Cobain’s Nostalgias, violinist David Buckley took over the composer’s more rhapsodic themes with
just the right amount of flourish, and Martin returned the favor when it was his turn.
Martin’s Abrazar al Viento proves this Buenos Aires native has made a worthy contribution to the
city’s fabled tango tradition. If his harmonic palette is not particularly adventurous, his cornucopia of
fresh, inventive melodies compensate nicely, and he has adroitly structured the pace of his five-
movement work so the bold, animated finale leaves his listeners with the sense of having completed a
rewarding journey.
Putting Kurt Weill’s 1934 Tango Habanera on the program reminds us how international the tango
became in the last century. Weill managed to graft a touch of Berlin cabaret song into his tango, and
it was popular enough in its day for Roger Fernay to compose a lyric for Tango Habanera, which
became known as the song Youkali. Camarada’s polished account of Weill’s tango was matched by
the dancers’ sophisticated, urbane choreography.
The group’s encore was Carlos Gardel’s Por una cabeza.
This concert was presented Camarada on Thursday, February 24, 2022, in the Baker-Baum Concert
Hall of the Conrad Prebys Performing Arts Center in downtown La Jolla.
