Buenos Aires
is the birthplace of Tango, born in the brothels of the city, just before the beginning
of the 1880s century. The word' Tango" refers to both a musical style and
the dance performed to it. Tango, a dance known as passionate, sensual and very
elegant, was all the rage in the 1930's in Buenos Aries and Paris. Tango is not
only a dance but also an obsession. For the ´tanguero´, it is as much as a part
of life as eating and sleeping. Erotic and passionate, haunting and
melancholic, it involves not only the body but also the soul. Yes, it is just
feeling - but in one dance, you can express sad, happy, angry, relax, deep,
shallow, cheerful, sorrow, painful, serious, intellectual or just playful
feelings. Tango has captured the popular imagination for over one hundred years
to become no less than an international cult.
