Between Sound and Movement in Embodied Tango Performance: Implications for the Study of the Perfomative Style in Tango

Resumen

In a recent work we studied differences that characterize styles of A. Troilo’s and O. Pugliese’s tango orchestras by analyzed the relationships between phenomenal accents and grouping units of the sonic melodic-rhythmic patterns. In the present work, we continue the stylistic analysis focusing on the expressiveness of the tango performer’s body movements. The aim is to observe and describe expressive gestures in the movements of two bandoneon performers, interpreting a same tango according to Troilo and Pugliese styles. We analyzed the quality of body movements and effector gestures (Laban, 1971; Godoy and Leman, 2010) in the performance of rhythmic-melodic patterns. As to Troilo, the accentual and gestural conjunction is generally coincident with the metric scheme, and also with the grouping units. As to Pugliese, the melodic-rhythmic patterns are not performed in phase with the metric structure: the temporal distribution occurs at different levels of the metric hierarchy.
