Tango By Year

Tango 1943

🎧 Clases de Tango en Buenos Aires – Por qué un método único no funciona
En este episodio, exploramos por qué el tango no puede enseñarse con un método estandarizado. Reflexiono sobre la importancia de una enseñanza personalizada, que respete el ritmo, el cuerpo y la historia de cada persona. Ya sea en clases particulares o en grupos reducidos, el tango se transmite mejor cuando se escucha y se acompaña, como en el abrazo mismo.

Ideal para quienes quieren aprender tango desde una perspectiva auténtica, profunda y humana.

In 1909, when Eduardo Arolas composed “Una noche de garufa”, he had not yet acquired a formalized musical education. He was 17 years old.
Still, in his first composition, all the elements of his style are present, bursting out into the world, for the amusement of all of those who, like me, love Tango. This quality cannot be attributed to any other Tango composer. None of his colleagues had a defined style during their first compositions, and would need many years to develop it. Arolas’ works have such advanced characteristics, that they will keep forever surprising Tango lovers wondering how, what inspiration, and from which source Arolas extracted them.

Between 1913 and 1916, Arolas' musical composition and production showed evident improvement due to his musical studies, and the achieved experience of his profession. He consolidated his fame, taking his orchestra to the level of the most prominent ones, leaving the neighborhood cafés, playing on Corrientes Street and at the luxurious places of Palermo neighborhood, in the interior of Argentina, and in Montevideo.

Tango

At Escuela de Tango de Buenos Aires, we are committed to preserving and promoting the rich and vibrant art of Tango.
Established in 2011, our institution is headquartered in Buenos Aires, the heart of Tango, with additional San Francisco Bay Area branches, extending our passion for this dance across continents.
Tango, born in the late nineteenth century from the socially and economically marginalized communities of the Rio de la Plata, is more than just a dance—it’s a profound cultural expression. It encapsulates its people’s history, emotions, and stories, evolving continuously while staying rooted in its origins.

As a living entity, Tango thrives in the interplay between tradition and innovation.

At our school, we honor this legacy by offering a space where dancers of all levels can immerse themselves in the authentic spirit of Tango, cultivating both skill and connection in a supportive community.

Join us in keeping the art of Tango alive, vibrant, and ever-evolving.
