Tango

Thursday, December 1st, 2005 by Bill Tusan

The tango dance is all about emotion. The lyrics may sing of losing love and trust or failure or the passing of time. The South American themes in urban life of poverty and misery or one may hear uplifting lyrics of better times. Tango’s home is in Uruguay, Argentina and is danced and felt anywhere two souls meet for this emotionally charged dance.

The tango is not meant to bring out the feminist side of the woman but the feeling of the woman in mutual surrender. She follows as he rhythmically pushes forward and backward facing him and facing away from him. Modern girls may want independence but when dancing the tango it is this feeling of surrender of the woman that makes the dance so romantic.

Tango began during Argentina’s economic boom at the turn of the century. Its second era began in the 40’s and 50’s. There were many tango halls and orchestras. Whether it was the music or the dance that was so captivating it was the orchestras that caused this revival of the tango.

New compositions and new style as well as the traditional styles bring the tango to the present with new devotees embracing the tango as something new and exciting. The tango is the music, the dance and more importantly the romantic emotional movements of man and woman.
