Magnolias on the Snow Andrey Klimovich Vera Kholodnaya Russian tango dates from the days of Czar’s winter palace to the present. The rhythm of the tango reached Moscow when it was first heard in the 1910s. Many very popular tangos were produced in Russia during the 20th Century. This article reviews Russian tango from its earliest days through the fall of the Soviet Union. By the 1960s, tango music and dance had lost their popularity, to be reborn at the end of the century. Muscovites were fond of everything fashionable, from the early cameras, exotic imports from Africa and Asia, the Art Nouveau style. Moscow culture was very progressive and international. For example, the ballet Russian Seasons by Sergei Diaghilev was performed. in Paris Europeans were stunned by the artists Lev Bakst and Roman Tyrtov. Tango, was something exotic that instantly gained popularity among the Moscow bourgeoisie. In 1911, the Russian Emperor Nicholas II, discovered this new passion among the aristocracy, and allowed dancing tango in the Winter Palace. But, the tango was unknown to the general public. It was a dance for the elite. Tango was brought to the masses by performing artists and comedians. By 1914, this new dance found the way to the cafes of Moscow. The theatrical actor and singer, Alexander Vertinsky, presented in Moscow a comic performance entitled Tango. Two dancers simulated the dance of love, and Vertinsky recited a parody monologue, talking about Argentina and the passions that were storming there. The name of Vertinsky then was not known to anyone, at the timwe. He will later become the greatest singer of Russian tangos in the 1920s and 1930s. Another artist, Izabella Kremer. the opera singer, performed romances in Russian and Yiddish, before the Second World War in support of resistance forces. No tango recordings with her voice exist now. But, many sources name her as the first singer to popularize tango in Russia. Exotic Argentina and this new dance of embrace, caused many artists to reconsider their repertoire. For example, in 1913, Kremer performed on stage the new Tango of Death. The song was, in fact, the artistic translation of the lyrics El Choclo. But in the musical terms, it sounded like a classical romantic ballad. In far off, sultry Argentina, Where the southern sky is so blue, Where any woman is like a picture, There Joe fell in love with Clo ... When she lit the evening lamp, She danced with him in the tavern For a drunk and roaring mob teasing tango. Tango of Death, 1914. from the repertoire of Iza Kremer This lyrics became so popular that the story became a plot for a silent movie, with starring actress Vera Holodnaya. This was a bohemian period of Russian tango. It was performed mainly by self-taught artists, and orders for new tangos were made by the aristocracy. However, in 1917 the situation began to change rapidly. During the revolution the old aristocracy ceased to exist, and many of the artists emigrated abroad. — 5 — TO SUBSCRIBE, CLICK HERE
