History of tango

Tango is a dance full of sensuality that was born in the 1800s in the most marginal areas of the city of Buenos Aires, Argentina. These communities were populated by a great diversity of people, among these were Argentines of African, indigenous and Caribbean origin. On the other hand there were many European immigrants who began to arrive in great waves towards the end of the century.

The graceful and passionate tango movements reveal the diverse cultural backgrounds of these early tango dancers. The solemn melodies of this music open a window to the listener into the life of the first immigrants from Argentina. Eventually the tango spread to the wealthier parts of Buenos Aires.

In the early 20th century, this style of dance gained popularity in Europe and the US as it continued to develop. The popularity of Argentine tango skyrocketed during the country’s prosperous “golden age” (1930-1955), which also saw the rise of new styles of tango.

The cultural movement, stage, and collective of musicians, poets, and dancers who invented tango are collectively known as the Old Guard. Although the origins of tango predate the Old Guard, it is there that this movement adopts the name that identifies it and acquires its own musical originality and choreography.

During this period the bandoneon was adopted as a typical tango instrument, with the first outstanding instrumentalists such as Juan Maglio (Pancho) and Eduardo Arolas.

A bit of history about the city of tango

Born in the Río de la Plata in the 19th century, tango is a musical style that results from the fusion between African culture and the local cultures of the gauchos and native peoples, as well as the contribution of mainly European immigrants, Spaniards and Italian and Middle Eastern.

The elegant and passionate movements of tango show the blend of exotic cultures of these early tango dancers. The majestic melody of the music offers listeners a glimpse into the life of early Argentine immigrants. The tango then spread to the wealthier neighborhoods of Buenos Aires.

This type of dance continued to grow and develop, causing a sensation throughout Europe and America in the early 20th century. Argentina’s Golden Age (1930-1950) was a time of prosperity for the country and saw an explosion in popularity and new styles of Argentine tango.

In the 1980s, tango became popular thanks to the international recognition of several Hollywood movies. Today tango schools have been opened all over the world, and in 2009 UNESCO inscribed it on the List of Intangible Heritage of Humanity.
