"The Tango is not a dance but an obsession. For the
tanguero, it is as much a part of life as eating and
sleeping. Erotic and passionate, haunting and melancholy,
it involves not only the body but also the soul..."

Where his love for Tango originated:
Before he was born. His mother was a pianist, 100% Tango. His father was a sculptor. Among his father's largest accomplishments - his hands brought eternal life to the smiling statue of Carlos Gardel which stands ovcer Gardel's grave at the cemetery "La Chacarita" in Buenos Aires.

When Alberto began dancing professionally:
At 16 years of age he began dancing and performing a Tango show in Mar del Plata, Argentina. At the "Carino Club" and "La Guindola," at the age of 27 and already in the United States, he became the first Argentine to present his tango show. At the Tropicana Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada he created many tango shows and became known by the Argentine Association of Los Angeles (La Asociasion Argentina de Los Angeles) as a dancer with his "own style". He also performed in other well known places like "La Canasta," "El Palenque," and "Restaurant Buenos Aires." He often joined the "trio tres" for the Tango and the singer Osvaldo Robal.

More with Tango:
He was a broadcaster and creator of many tango programs like, "La Voz del Milagro" (Carlos Gardel), "La Voz de Los Barrios," "La Voz de America," and "Argentina Bajo El Cielo de Los Angeles," with acts on L.U. 6 Radio Atlantica of Mar del Plata and Channel 8 (TV) Mar del Plata, Radio Carbe in Uruguay, Radio Mundo and Exquisita in El Salvador and seven different local radio stations in Los Angeles.

What Alberto would like to express:
"I love the Tango and I want to share my love by teaching with my knowledge, experience and my 'own style' in an effort to keep the passion of the Argentine Tango alive."
