| Description |
The Argentine Tango has a mixture of African and Spanish antecedents, and also a strong influence from the Argentine milonga which is sung by Gauchos. In its beginnings, the Tango was an ill-famed dance, being very fashionable in dance halls and cabarets. The Tango programme will present some of the finest examples of Tango and is accompanied by works by outstanding Argentinian Modern Painters; Onofrio, Linares, Santoro, Broullon and Severi. |
