Lecture by Heyni Solera: Today's Women in Tango Sunday, Jul. 24 1:00 - 3:00 lecture and discussion $15 suggested donation. Don't stay away for lack of funds. The Dome 951 62nd Street Oakland, CA For the past six years, Argentina has seen the feminist movement increase in drive and power. In 2015, the movement "Ni Una Menos" mobilized women to form collectives and to fight for their rights. Tango music has been influenced by this movement as more female tango musicians begin to form all-women ensembles, take on positions of leadership, engage with the social change through protest and academic research, etc. Using an ethnomusicological approach, this lecture focuses on 14 different female tango musicians to shed some insight on how today's women in tango position themselves during this time period, and how they are carving out for themselves a space in a historically male-dominated genre.
