Three Key Points: Brass, specifically the French Horn, is a powerful instrument that can be used to create a sense of heroism in music. A good percussion section can portray power and strength. I like to use taikos, toms, marching snare, concert bass, and a timpani or two. A choir with an ascending progression to counter the brass section adds an uplifting effect to the leitmotif. #musiccomposer

Last night I had the chance to hear one of the greatest Tango composers and pianists of our time, Julian Peralta, speak about what makes this music so extremely precious and unique. And of course as a proud Tango nerd, I was intrigued, and throughout the lecture, my mind kept going back to Leadership Lessons in Liberal Arts. So, here are a couple of nuggets: 1. Tango is the product of a confluence of musical cultures coming together due to voluntary and involuntary immigration. It is based in Afro-Peruvian, Atlantic, and numerous European influences converging and evolving in Buenos Aires. The lesson for leaders: Innovation requires diversity. There is no way around it. The most incredible and lasting work comes from bringing together influences from across the world. 2. Tango, unlike most other genres of music, is unique in that it is not confined to a choreography or a set structure by dancers. In most of Folklore (popular music) or Ballroom (classical music), there are some fixed routines or steps to be followed. This means the music is bound by time or rhythmic structures that allow for those choreographies to be practiced. The improvisational nature of Tango as a dance, allows the music to evolve over time and creates the space for something like Contemporary Tango to continue in it's evolution, even today. The lesson for leaders: If you want to keep growing and evolving, examine your rituals and habits. If you are holding onto practices because that is how they have always been done, then the amount of change/innovation will always be limited to that which came before. True change requires a more dynamic set of relationships in which change can lead to progress. 3. Tango as a music benefited immensely from 'division of labor' or 'specialization'. There are people who went deeply into specializing on an instrument, like the piano, violin, or bandoneon. There are people who solely arrange music or write lyrics. This specialization means you have people who are the absolute best at what they do, focused on bringing the top talents together. Leadership Lesson: This is not a new one. It's Netflix' sports analogy to building high performing teams. But for those not as sports minded, it can also be seen in an orchestra. Simply put, bring together high performing talent. Maybe more subtle, but what I also love about this is define roles/responsibilities clearly. A violinist is ultimately solely focused on playing their part. They rarely feel the need (nor have the skills) to jump into the lane of a pianist, while the two may play together beautifully. Especially, with high performing teams a sense of clear ownership around roles & responsibilities allows each person to thrive in the team setting and leads to success, together. Made it this far and want to hear some contemporary Tango?! Here is a taste of Julian Peralta: https://lnkd.in/ei6h8ayu
