Pepa Palazon

Pepa Palazon (also written Pepa Palazón) is a dancer from Spain who came to Buenos Aires in 2007 for a sabbatical year of tango and stayed. [2] She created the interview series 'Tengo una pregunta para vos', which began in 2011. [3][4] She has also danced shows and taught musicality workshops. [6][8]

Pepa Palazon is a dancer who arrived in Buenos Aires from Spain in 2007. She intended to spend a sabbatical year of tango there and stayed on. [2] A Tangodanza article republished online describes her as a Spanish woman who conquered Buenos Aires. [2] Her name appears both as Palazon and as Palazón in source titles. [3][4][7]

She is best documented as the creator and host of the interview series 'Tengo una pregunta para vos'. [3][4] According to the dossier, the series grew out of a conversation with Chicho Frúmboli at the door of La Viruta in 2011, following his El Tangauta profile (No. 182, December 2009). [3] The series later moved to the Centro Cultural de España en Buenos Aires (CCEBA) in 2013 and to DNI Tango in 2014. [4] In 2018 it gained Patreon funding and its own YouTube channel. [5]

One listing records her dancing with a number of partners, including Matías Trípodi, Milena Plebs, Paulo Bernardo, Rolo Valdivieri, Horacio Pebete Godoy, Fabián Peralta, Raúl Bravo, Olga Besio, Eduardo Pareja, Toto Faraldo, Julio Balmaceda and Javier Rodríguez. [1] In 2019 she danced a show with Rolo Valdivieri at Salón Canning. [6] She has also taught musicality workshops, for example in London in October 2025. [8]

Arrival in Buenos Aires

Palazon came to Buenos Aires from Spain in 2007 for a sabbatical year devoted to tango, and she remained in the city afterwards. [2] Tangodanza (no. 58) told her story under the headline 'Tengo una pregunta para vos': una española conquista Buenos Aires, which takes its name from her interview series. [2]

'Tengo una pregunta para vos'

The interview series 'Tengo una pregunta para vos' is credited to Palazon in the titles of its archived website and its videos. [3][4] It was born in 2011 from a conversation with Chicho Frúmboli at the door of La Viruta, following his profile in El Tangauta (No. 182, December 2009). [3] One recorded edition featured the dancer Milena Plebs and was published in three parts. [3]

In 2013 the series moved to the Centro Cultural de España en Buenos Aires (CCEBA). [4] In 2014 it moved to DNI Tango, and Tangodanza published a profile of it after 21 interviews had taken place. [4]

In 2018 Palazon set up Patreon funding for the project and launched a YouTube channel dedicated to the series. [5] On 9 April 2024 she was herself the guest on the programme 'La usina del tango'. [7] The title of that video calls her a journalist (periodista). [7]

[1] The listing does not give dates or occasions for these partnerships. [1]
