Ethnicity Tango. Klezmer. música popular. judíos. etnicidad tango klezmer música popular judeus etnicidade This article discusses the connections between two musical traditions known as klezmer and tango, based on the artistic work of the contemporary Argentine musical group Tango Klezmer Project, created by musicians Norberto Vogel and Victor Mursten. The text seeks to explore the way in which the group expresses its double sense of belonging, porteño and Jewish, through the creative mix of these two musical genres, offering expression to the subjectivities of part of the descendants of Ashkenazi Jewish immigrants settled in Buenos Aires.

I try to show that, if on the one hand, tango occupied a relevant place in the process in which these first immigrants achieved their integration into Argentine society, on the other hand, klezmer appears more recently as a reference universe for a reconnection with Jewish traditions, without ceasing to feel porteños. I note that these musical experiments mobilize different temporalities and certain spatialities and that their development mobilizes narratives, connects real or mythical places, providing an imaginary basis for the elaboration of contemporary Jewish memories and identities Este artigo aborda as conexões entre duas tradições musicais conhecidas como o klezmer e o tango, a partir do trabalho artístico do grupo musical argentino contemporâneo Tango Klezmer Project, criado pelos músicos Norberto Vogel e Victor Mursten. O texto busca explorar o modo com que o grupo manifesta seu duplo sentimento de pertença, portenho e judaico, através da mescla criativa de estes dois gêneros musicais, oferecendo expressão para as subjetividades de parte dos descendentes de imigrantes judeus ashkenazitas estabelecidos em Buenos Aires. Os músicos fazem ampla referência ao passado migratório de seus antepassados e à sua correspondente experiência musical para justificarem suas combinações sonoras. Procuro mostrar que, se por um lado, o tango ocupou um lugar relevante no processo em que estes primeiros imigrantes conquistaram sua integração na sociedade argentina, por outro, o klezmer se afigura contemporaneamente como um universo de referência para uma re-conexão com as tradições judaicas, sem deixarem de se sentirem portenhos. Observo que estes experimentos musicais mobilizam distintas temporalidades e determinadas espacialidades, e que seu desenvolvimento mobiliza narrativas, conecta lugares reais ou míticos, fornecendo uma base imaginária para a elaboração de memórias e identidades judaicas contemporâneas.
