5.0 out of 5 stars Quantity plus quality, July 7, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: The Best of Cosmo Tango (2003) (DVD)

This DVD offers an unprecedented quantity of performances by many of the most famous Argentine tango dancers in the world. The image quality is superior to any VHS tape. All the performances are taped in front of live and enthusiastic audiences, which adds greatly to the authentic feeling of tango being danced in Buenos Aires. Each couple has its own style, and even though people can disagree on what they like, the superior skills of dancers are indisputable. The variety of styles is what makes Argentine tango so special, and what attracts to it a huge crosssection of dance-loving public. This DVD is not cheap, but there is nothing like it on the market, and therefore it's well worth the investment.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nothing like it, November 28, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: The Best of Cosmo Tango (2003) (DVD)

There is nothing like this DVD that can be found anywhere. The dancers are just outstanding. The performances are so captivating that you wish there was more, even though there is plenty on each side of the DVD - 90 minutes each. Most of the video uses two cameras and there are no special effects to take away from the great dancers. Very enjoyable video and it can be watched over and over again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wealth of tango, August 21, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: The Best of Cosmo Tango (2003) (DVD)

Three hours of world's best argentine tango dancers. Almost every dance is new in terms of choreography. The wealth of steps and figures is beyond belief. Several new couples are fantastic, while the "regular" stars are shining even brighter. Excellent addition to my collection of tango videos.
