From the moment that Gregory (“Grisha”) Nisnevich encountered Argentine Tango in 2001, it has been accompanying his life. Argentine Tango first captured Gregory's imagination as an incredibly complex genre of music, intensely polyphonic in its formation. As a dance, it became for him a creative exploration of endless possibilities of intricate interpretations of music through movement. He has studied with Argentine master teachers Pablo Pugliese and with Julio Balmaceda and Corina de la Rosa. Being a concert touring classical guitarist, Gregory never missed an opportunity to participate in world milongas and festivals while on tour, experiencing and learning many styles and genres. Extensively using in his music teaching the Alexander technique for muscle relaxation, Gregory brings this unique knowledge to his teaching in tango. In 2005, he was invited to play live with Julio Balmaceda and Corina de la Rosa for their performance during C.I.T.A. (Congreso International de Tango Argentino) at Teatro Astral and Salon Canning in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
