Enrique & Guillermo de
Fazio, Argentine brothers who have become the legendary dance couple known as
Los Hermanos Macana.
Via google translate from http://www.teatrocondominio.it/Tango.html:
The undisputed stars of tango
festival in all continents, the brothers Macana (Enrique and Guillermo De
Fazio) are considered one of the most talented dancers pairs of the landscape,
"tango" international. The meaning of their name "Macana",
derived from the popular slang of Buenos
Aires, identifies them as picaresque, playful, smart
guys. [...] Los Hermanos Macana, [recall] the origins
of the tango as "compadritos" (the thugs of the time) who, for lack
of women, were forced to train and dance with each other, eager to excel,
showing their skills and [...] talents.
Skinny, tall, elegant, ironic and a little “braggarts”, Los Hermanos Macana surprise us, [capturing us] with power and masculinity in unique interpretations, with clean and fast steps, combined with lots of fun. The originality of their style [sets them apart] as a pair [...] able to mix talent, fun, energy and great respect for the magnificent art of tango. Their provocative interpretation transmits lightness and ease of movement [as] the dance is so natural for them, but for us it is [breathless]. To embellish the show, [they perform with] extraordinary dancers and live music by an outstanding orchestra of the new generation "tango" in Buenos Aires.

Born and raised in Buenos
Aires, the brothers Macana begin their career as a dancer in 1995, [studying]
with the greatest masters of Argentine Tango [such] as Juan Carlos Copes, Eduardo
Aquimbau, Gabriel Angio y Natalia Games, Mingo Pugliese y Raul Bravo. After two
years [they were] invited to debut in one of the most prestigious milongas of
Buenos Aires, where they [performed] their first dance scene in "Mala
Junta" which sealed their success. From that performance on, invitations [came] from the most famous milongas and tango theater productions in Buenos Aires and the rest of the Americas. But
also abroad [they conquered] with their art, countries across Europe, Australia and [Malaysia]. Robert Duvall and
Francis Ford Coppola chose them as icon "tango" in the film
"Assassination Tango" (2001). They have shared the stage with Placido
Domingo and were invited by the famous dancer Mikhail Baryshnikov to
participate in the great Festival of the Arts in Sarasota
USA.
