Tango: noble and elegant double dance, interwoven with the gorgeous beat of intimate contact; Dancing feet quickly, filled with hot air, passionate and melancholy music, this is tango, elegant and inspiring! Originated in Buenos Aires, the capital of Argentina in the 1980 s, immigrants from Europe and Africa combined with the culture of local residents to develop a new music form-tango. In order to alleviate the homesickness and loneliness in the New World, those immigrants developed new dances and music to fill the homesickness, which will spread to the middle and lower classes of the Argentine people, the pulling effect between street prostitutes and benefactors, and the earlier struggle between two men for women. In addition, those immigrants used the musical instrument Bandoneon (similar to the accordion) from Germany to play the melody that accompanied the dance. The melancholy and sentimental style is a portrayal of their mood at that time. Sorrow over fate and the future devoured their souls, and they were indifferent to the staggered and passionate pace of tango. Therefore, tango is a dance to express sadness! It has become the music and dance of the Argentine people. Later, after the baptism of European theaters and chamber music, tango music became more mature and choreographed in action, and became a favorite ballroom dance of the upper class.

Tango dance originated from a folk dance in central and western Africa. /kloc-In the 20th century, a large number of immigrants from Europe and Africa flooded into Argentina, and many people temporarily stayed in Buenos Aires because they had nowhere to take refuge, so brothels and bars near the pier became the main places for them to indulge in debauchery and drown their sorrows. At this time, the song and dance forms brought by immigrants from European countries such as Spain and Africa merged with the local indigenous culture to form the tango, which was originally famous with the name of "Bai Le Kong Colt" (a dance with pauses). Later, people who liked Buenos Aires changed this dance in two ways. They first changed the so-called "Polka rhythm" to "Habanella rhythm", and then called this dance "tango".
When tangono first spread to America, it merged some Latin American folk dance styles and formed two kinds of tango dances, Mexico and Argentina. Later, tango was introduced to Europe, and influenced by European folk dances, three kinds of tango dances were formed in Spain, Italy and Britain. The predecessor of the contemporary international standard tango dance is the Royal British tango dance, which combines the essence of all kinds of tango dances in the world and enjoys the reputation of "the king of dance" because of its strong and straightforward style.

Tango, as a national dance, has long been well known to the public, but its dynamic and static dance steps, glance left and right eyes, and distant and strange music make tango put on a mysterious and strange coat.
The most striking feature of tango dance step is "the crab takes the catwalk". When the dance steps need to move forward, the dancers move wildly; When the dance steps need to be reversed, the dancer moves sideways and forwards. At the same time, the dance steps of tango dancers are often fast and slow with the change of music beat, so tango dance is also called "the dance of instantaneous pause". In this way, the steps of tango dance have formed the characteristics of wanting to enter and retreat, being scattered and moving. In addition, the tango dancer pays attention to the vertical upper body, the heels of both feet are raised and the knees are slightly bent. All movements are the feeling of downward extension of strength, and the dance is very calm and powerful. When excellent tango dancers dance, we can hardly see the movements, only see the position of the end of the movements, only the lines, speed and changing center of gravity, giving people a firm and angular feeling. Argentine tango is mainly about calf exercise. Male and female dancers jump out of a series of dazzling dance steps with skillful cooperation, and the intertwined limbs fully show the beauty of the human body. Tango dancers have serious facial expressions and stare at each other affectionately, but from time to time they quickly turn their heads and look around. There is also a legend about the origin of this action, saying that a sailor had a girlfriend before. But one day when they came back from the sea and were dancing, the sailor found that his girlfriend had been turning her head, so he turned around and found his girlfriend looking at his new partner. The sailor was jealous at once. From then on, the male dancer quickly turned his head to supervise the movements of his partner. The statement of the association.
However, apart from the unique and graceful figure of dancers, the biggest difference between Argentine tango and national tango is that Argentine tango is emotional. In the eyes of Argentines, tango is like a war or struggle in which men and women voluntarily participate. Strong eye contact and physical contact between male and female partners are the soul of tango.
Argentine tango music combines dance elements from Africa, India, Spain and Latin, and is as full of deep emotions as dance. The most typical band form of tango music is the rhythm played by piano and bass, and the melody played by concertina and violin. Among them, the hexagonal accordion originated in Germany is the most distinctive tango instrument. From the melody of hexagonal accordion, we can hear the deep homesickness of Argentines.
