Publisher's Synopsis
When people think about tango, today they are most likely to think about its modern ballroom type, which has become famous for its focus on high spectator satisfaction and ability to be practiced in a competitive environment. In addition to various tango dancing styles, tango can also be danced to several styles of tango music, including traditional, nuevo, and alternative. While the influences of those music styles change the dance, the core number of principles are shared among all types of tango dances. Musical instruments that can most commonly be heard during a tango dance are the traditional accordion, bandoneon (tango accordion), piano, guitar, violin, double bass, and a human voice.
This book shows you how. All technical, frivolous, and kinesthetic explanations are eliminated. Three hundred lessons and thousands of hours of dancing are boiled down to ten minutes of interesting facts, a definite plan, and three short rules of thumb. Don't let your worldly, modern mind keep you from more dances and progress any longer.
