Full Interview with Alex Krebs, Part 1: Connection & Flow

Wednesday, September 01, 2010

Since posting an article about my interview with Alex Krebs at Tangofest in 2008, I have received several requests to publish the fully transcribed interview. It is finally here in two parts (due to length). Revisiting this interview was a great experience; Alex is an excellent dancer, musician, instructor, and thinker with a great perspective on the dance. This first part covers how Alex fell in love with tango as well as his reflections on connection and flow. Part 2 covers his approach to musicality and his unique experiences with forming a tango orchestra and learning the bandoneón.

In case you’re not already familiar with Alex Krebs – or even if you are – here is a video of him dancing with Jennifer Olson. Watch the video, then dive into the interview. Enjoy!
