Agentine Tango
~“Such a unique and daring Musical and Dance Style,
that his dancing movements enchanted the entire world;
will immerse you in a sentimental and intimate journey
from which you can not escape "~
Tango is so important that it marked the Identity and Culture of an entire country, Argentina.
With more than 100 years old, in addition to being a musical genre, it is a typical dance born in the poor neighborhoods of Buenos Aires in the 19th Century. At that time there was a large influx of Africans and Buenos Aires received boats full of European immigrants. The fusion of different cultural origins
gave rise to its beginnings, so that little by little it spread and gained its well-deserved World Fame. One of the most important moments for Tango as Dance in its expansion would happen in 1910, when the Argentine
poet Ricardo Güiraldes, fond of dancing Tango and considered a Great Dancer of the time, was the one who would take the city music to Paris and would dance it in the environments of the city. This allowed that in Buenos Aires it became an accepted dance in the highest social classes, since until then it was considered an indecent dance since its origin was located in bars, cafes and brothels. One of the most distinctive qualities of the dance is the intimate embrace of the couple while they dialogue with movements drawn by their legs as the music moves. The Argentine Tango has three different rhythms, Milonga, Waltz and Tango as such. The most important
characteristic that differentiates them is the rhythm, and if we talk about dance, the Waltz has a rather Romantic character, while the character of the Milonga is Festive and Playful. Now when we talk about Tango it is the main rhythm and the one that has the greatest relevance, depending on the Musical Orchestra its character can be very varied, from nostalgic to fun, from passionate to heartbreak. The musical richness and variety of this genre allows dancers to create a roller coaster of emotions. In 1930 the Golden Age of Tango would begin, the innumerable number of Orchestras and Dancers would give it enough strength to continue its expansion, appearing in Hollywood movies, the dancers would begin to travel internationally, triumphing from the most hidden places to Broadway. Tango gained such recognition that since 1977, every December 11th the National Tango Day is celebrated, in commemoration of the birth dates of two of the most important composers and singers in the history of tango, Carlos Gardel and Julio De Caro, also in 2009 UNESCO declared it Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.
Nowadays , Argentine Tango leaves no corner of the world without being present
to continue to fall in love with the hearts of those who have not yet been lucky
enough to experience it up close.
