tango

Argentina 's unique music genre and dance to that music. In Spanish it is called ‘tango’.

It refers to a dance in which people walk to music while holding each other heart-to-heart , or the music used when dancing. To distinguish it from 'Continental Tango', which will be explained below, the country of origin is also referred to as 'Argentine Tango'. It consists of lead and follow, and various foot movements are performed using upper and lower body separation and time difference. The energy and connection between leaders and followers is key. Also, music is very important. Interpretation of music, referred to as ‘musicality’, is the core of choreography.

The types of Argentine tango music are tango, vals, and milonga , and the word tango is also used to indicate the genre of tango music.

It was derived from the dance of the lower class people in the Boca region, an Argentina port in the 1910s, and it was widely spread throughout Europe, especially in Paris, France, which was in full bloom in Buenos Aires, and it was imported into the home of Argentina.

There are many theories about the origin of Tango, but the most common theory is that it was influenced by Abanera, which was introduced to the dock near Buenos Aires, the capital of Argentina in the late 1800s. Avanero is a two -four -beat song in Cuba , which is a two -beating Milonga , which is popular in the fast rhythm of Kandom, which was popular in Buenos Aires and Montevideo in Uruguay . And it is the tango today that this Milonga has been transformed.

What is unique is that tango only flourished in Buenos Aires, and did not spread well to other regions of Argentina. Since it must be assumed that it is a city where people can dance and have fun all night long in a densely populated area, and where security is guaranteed, it should be seen as essentially urban culture.

There is a separate culture of tango dance hall called ' Milonga ', and after the performance, professional dancers usually mingle with regular tangoers to dance, talk, and drink all night long. The atmosphere is mainly to drink wine lightly, and it is not drunk to get drunk like a salsa bar. Usually, a milonga is run under the name of an organizer who leads and manages the atmosphere and a DJ who plays music. In particular, DJs hold separate workshops, and famous DJs are invited to international festivals. That's why DJs are so important. This is because the condition and mood of the dancers must be controlled through music. DJs are people who work the magic of playing Darienso when I thought, 'I wish Darienso would come out at this point...' (Usually someone who sits high up and stares at iTunes on the laptop with an eagle eye)

In general, most people do not have a fixed partner and dance with people they know while sitting in a milonga , or they use signals called cabeseo to exchange glances even if they do not know each other.[1] They instantly become a couple and dance. Usually, 3 to 4 songs are danced as a group, and that group is called tanda (tanda).[2] It is called. After one tanda, a song other than tango is played briefly, and then everyone can say thank you and come back in. The other song that comes out at that time is called Cortina. In Korea, too, before the Tanda and Cortina culture took root, only one person was the main focus(...), but now everyone is protecting them like a sword.

For reference, if you say 'Thank You' while dancing, it means to stop dancing. Legendary tanguero (man who dances tango) and dancer Carlos Gabitto danced with a woman, and after one song the woman was so happy that she thanked her, and Gabitto took her hand and went to her seat. It is said that he guided me (...) Let's never do this when enjoying a foreign milonga. (unless the opponent messed up)

In any case, it is not a choreographed dance, but a spontaneous dance performed by people who meet at a party. Of course, there are fields such as showtango and essaynario where partners choreograph and practice choreography for performance. But fundamentally, tango is improvisation.

Argentine Tango is classified as a genre with a somewhat older age compared to Salsa or Swing Dance. Salsa and swing dances are mainly enjoyed by young people in their 20s and 30s, and are characterized by rhythmic music, fast tempo footwork, and intense movements in the hand -centered hand -centered hands called 'hand taste'. These energetic dances are suitable for physical and active times, and they often pursue social dances in the party atmosphere.

Tango, on the other hand, focuses on sharing deep connections with partners through 'Abraso', a position that closely adheres to each other's chests centered on 'walking'. As a result, tango has a relatively intense movement and has strengths in emotional sympathy and static lead & follow. Because of these characteristics, it is considered a dance that can be enjoyed relatively continuously in the age of 40s and 50s who are burdened with intense movement. In fact, there are a lot of cases where people who enjoy salsa or swing as a young man, who are older and difficult to match the atmosphere of physical limitations and young people, turn to tango.

In this trend, in Korea, tango is also called the tomb of dance. It may sound somewhat negative on the surface, but it is also interpreted as 'destination of dance', which is not just a retirement, but the last destination of dances. The exchanges of deep emotions, dense connections, and concentration from refined walking are unique in other genres, and in this regard, tango is also called a kind of 'end plate king'.

Meanwhile, Tango has a higher barrier to entry than other social dances. While salsa or swing can stand on social stages in a relatively short period of time, tango takes many months to several years to learn about the basics and partners. This is because tango has to deal with emotions, breathing, and fine body movements beyond simple delivery, so it is considered to be more than twice as much as social debut.

In addition, 'Tango' is a publicly misunderstood as an image of a middle -aged man and a woman dancing with the blues music in a dark space, but the Argentine Tango is a dance of artistry and communication, which is the center of structured leads, followers and elaborate music interpretations. For example, in beginner classes in the cultural center, there are cases where male students are higher than that of women, and it is common to seriously come to training.

As such, Tango has a differentiated character in many ways with the Salsa and Swing, which is enjoyed by young people, and maintains its own position in the unique charm and popularity of each genre.

Bachata and Argentine Tango are both in close contact with their partners, and they have something in common in that they are based on a position (close position) that hugs each other. However, there is a distinct difference in many ways, such as the movement, lead and follow method, the emotions of music, the form of physical contact, and the difficulty of learning.

Bachata's dance population around the world is known to be about twice as many as tango. Bachata includes a movement that emphasizes the waist and pelvis in line with the rhythm of Latin music, and in the case of Sensual Bachata, especially the elements of pelvic moves, hip movies, body waves and hand techniques are developed. It also includes male dancers touching women's waist or pelvis, or putting knees into women's legs, which act as elements that make up a sensual style unique to Bachata. It may seem irritating to the bizer, but it is understood as part of a fixed technique within the dance community.

Argentine Tango, on the other hand, is a dance that expresses more restrained and inner sentiment. Tango begins with a hug called Abraso, and it is common to have little contact with the lower body with close contact with the chest. It is extremely rare for men to directly touch the woman's body by hand, and can only include a limited touch operation in the performance style tango estrenario. Tango has the characteristics of emphasizing emotional sympathy through the interpretation of music, sophisticated leads, and improvised skills.

In terms of learning, the two genes are different. Bachata is relatively intuitive and repeated rhythms, so you can quickly learn the basics and participate in social within a short period of time. In comparison, tango is required to have more than twice as much learning time than Vacha, until it is actually a social dancer because it requires complex technologies such as delicate coordination, balanced maintenance, and musical interpretation of lead and follow.

For this reason, many dancers often enjoy energy -full and accessible genres such as Salsa and Vacha, and turn into a tango where they can experience more in -depth expressions and emotional exchanges as they enter the middle age. As a result, the expression “tango is a grave and end plate king” is often used.

In summary, Vachata is an artistic dance that emphasizes women's sensuality and immediate expressions with popular and sexy couple dances, and tango emphasizes restrained movements and emotional depths. Both genres are connected to their partners in a close -end position, but the way of physical contact and social atmosphere are different, and it is also different in the requirements of learning and social entry.

Argentine Tango and Kijomba are social dances that developed against South America and Africa, respectively. Both of these dances are similar in that they create improvised movements based on nonverbal communication between leaders and followers. Basically, the frame connection through the hands, arms, and upper body is the core, and the left and right movement or rotating steps based on walking are repeated at the beginner level. It also shares a similar culture in that it dances with strangers and gains social experience. In addition, both musical roots have common roots, both of which were influenced by Cuba's Habanera rhythm (2/4 beats, rivers-medicine-river-drug rhythm). Tango indirectly succeeded the Habanera rhythm through Sibba through Milonga, and this rhythm contributes to strengthening emotional expressions in each dance.

However, in terms of physical adhesion, step configuration, entry barrier, and musical style, the two dance reveals a clear difference. Argentine Tango is centered on upper body adhesion. In the posture called 'Closed Embrace', it stands close enough to touch the chest and shares the axis of the two. The lower body moves relatively freely in these upper body frames, and can express elegant and sophisticated expressions through leg extension movements such as Boleon or Ganzar. As such, tango is based on the upper body adhesion, but the lower body tends to emphasize independent movement without direct contact.

Ki -Sympa, on the other hand, is relatively loose in the upper body, and is often connected to the arms and hands. But the lower body contact is much closer. In particular, in styles such as 'TARRAXO', the thighs and pelvis are in close contact, and the slow and flexible pelvic wave creates a sensual atmosphere. In this way, the show is the most prominent of the lower body adhesion among the various styles of Kiba, which acts as the biggest physical distinction with Tango. As a result, Ki -Sheba beginners may feel intimacy in this lower body, but sometimes they may feel burdened.

In terms of entry barriers, the two dance show different aspects. Argentine Tango is a dance with a high learning curve. It takes 1 ~ 3 months to learn basic walking and pivot, and to dance naturally in Milonga, usually requires a consistent practice of six to one year. In addition to sophisticated lower body techniques, it takes time to understand the upper body frame and etiquette (e.g. Cabeeso). In particular, the psychological adaptation to the upper body adhesion is also a barrier to beginners.

In comparison, Kiba is much easier to enter. Basic side steps or front and rear movements can be cooked within 12 months, and styling, including along, can be 36 months. The atmosphere of the party is also casual, and there are few formal invitations or dress regulations, so they are friendly to beginners. Of course, the lower body adhesion required in the show may be challenging for beginners, but the basic key soba itself is relatively low.

The style of the staff and the lower body are also an important factor that distinguishes the two dances. Argentine Tango is sharp and sophisticated in the staff and inserted actions such as momentary cruz and ocho in line with the rhythm change of music. The lower body is used independently of the upper body, and emphasizes the detailed expression using the toe or heel. The pelvis maintains a fixed state, and the center of gravity of the upper and lower bodys supports the structure of the dance.

Kijamba, on the other hand, is centered on a certain bit of steps. It moves like a push of the floor and keeps the flow naturally throughout the foot. In particular, in the show, the lower body contact and pelvic wave are emphasized, and the center of gravity is tilted toward the lower body. If the tango expresses dramatic expressions through the harmony and tension of the upper body center, the Ki -Shezoma creates an atmosphere with the lower body -centered flexibility and sensuality.

Musically, the two dances are commonly based on the Habanera rhythm, but the expression is different. Argentine Tango developed under the influence of Habanera, Milonga, and African Kandombe. In particular, the orchestra, centered on Vandenoneonon, creates a dramatic atmosphere, and the Habanera rhythm is reflected in the tango's strength and weakness, the stop and strength of the tango to enable dramatic expressions.

Kijomba is based on music influenced by Zouk in the Caribbean region of Angola. Semba inherits Habanera's 2/4 beats as a slow tempo, and Ki -Systa creates a lower body -centered flow through soft beats and melody based on electronic music. In particular, the show plays a role in further emphasizing the lower body and pelvic movement.

There is also a difference in the environment where social dances take place. Argentine Tango is a formal Milonga, and there are unique etiquette such as Cabecseo. In the tango party, it usually wears a suit or dress, and the song is composed of tanda in three to four songs. Kiba Party, on the other hand, is held at a casual club or venue, and there is no restriction on clothes, and it is common to replace partners in each song. The show is particularly intimate among these, and focuses on sensational connections between the two.

In conclusion, Argentine Tango and Kijomba share the common musical roots of the Habanera rhythm, but are clearly distinguished in the method of physical contact, the difficulty of entry, and the emotional expression and mood of dance. Tango enables elegant and dramatic expressions by adhering to upper body and independent movements of the lower body, and requires high barriers to entry and formality. Kiba, on the other hand, is loose in the upper body, but the lower body contact is intense, and this feature is especially prominent in the show. Kijomba, where you can experience sensual connections in a quick entry and casual atmosphere, is a social dance with the most distinct distinction from tango in that it is close to the lower body.

Tango exists in a variety of forms as its name. The most well -known form is Argentina Tango, but Continental Tango, one of the dance sports of the dance sports, is basically different from Argentina Tango. In fact, it is no exaggeration to say that the two tango are the same name, but the characteristics and skills are very different.

First of all, there is a big difference from the basic beat. Argentine Tango is based on 6 or 8 steps, and focuses on how fast and deep each beam can be expressed. Continental Tango, on the other hand, dances with 6 steps into 'SQQS' (Slow, Quick, Quick, Slow), which makes the structure of rhythm and beat very different. In addition, the two tango are different in the style of dance, as well as the music they use. Argentine Tango emphasizes the depth of emotions based on traditional tango music, and Continental Tango follows a relatively cheerful and formal rhythm through arrangement for dance sports.

The steps and the figure are also different. Argentine Tango emphasizes closely connections and flexible movements with partners and dances through personal interpretation. However, Continental Tango must be fitted to the specified specifications and follow certain rules and skills in the official contest. As a result, it is difficult for a person who learned Argentine Tango to convert to Continental Tango, and on the contrary. Because they have different styles and technical demands.

The most ironic thing is that when people say 'tango', the motion that often comes to mind is that the head flick and head flick come from Continental Tango. There is no such action in Argentine Tango. Argentine Tango is a dance that emphasizes much more delicate and emotional sympathy. Nevertheless, when expressing Argentine tango on movies and stage performances, they often put Continental Tango's unique maximum walking and head flick as decorative movements. This is because the public is generally an image that comes to mind when it is called 'tango'.

In the end, Tango has developed as a variety of changes as its name. Argentine Tango is an artistic dance that emphasizes individual emotional expressions and interactions, and Continental Tango is a regular and technology -based sports dance. The two tango are different from their basic roots and offer enjoyment and charms for each characteristics.

Tango has no percussion instruments. This is one of the charms and secrets of tango music. Usually, when you go to a milonga, you only see recordings of bands from the so-called golden age of the 1930s and 1940s. In other words, if someone decides to dance tango, they will have to dance while listening to a lot of similar, sometimes even the same, music for the rest of their lives. Nevertheless, one of the reasons I never get tired of it is the absence of percussion instruments. Dancers improvise and decide whether to use the same melody as a rhythm or melody, and even if they dance to the same music, it depends on their own condition and mood, communication with their partner, skills, and the atmosphere and level of the milonga or ronda that day . Because so many things act as variables, you can dance without getting tired.

Argentine tango consists of the 4-beat 'Tango', which emphasizes walking and mutual breathing, the 3-beat 'Valse' (derived from waltz), which emphasizes turning and gliding steps, and the 2-beat '', which was the origin of tango. It is divided into milongas . Tango music is also divided into genres depending on the dance, and usually in a tango bar, a tango DJ or live band plays or performs three songs of the same genre to form a 'danda'. One tanda usually consists of 3 to 4 songs played in succession, with tango usually having 4 songs and vals and milonga having 3 songs. At a milonga, the music is played like this: taengtangbal - taengtangmil - taengtangbal - taengtangmil, 443-443-443-443. Typically, a milonga lasts about four hours and features about 120 pieces of music. When a person dances from start to finish, it is called a puldanta. In fact, there are women who receive requests to dance like this from start to finish. She must dance at least 30 tantas.

As tango became very popular, tango singers were born, and even a movie featuring popular tango singers came out. The most famous of these tango singers is Carlos Gardel. He is the person who composed ' Por Una Cabeza ' , commonly known as "Scent of a Woman" .[3]

In fact, even in the early 1900s, when Gardel was popular, tango was a kind of consumption-type popular culture by and for the masses. But in 1921, Astor Piazzolla was born. Piazzolla, who is called the father of modern tango, said, "(To himself) tango is not for the feet, but for the ears," and he developed tango music as a confident music genre, not just a dance song. His famous songs include ' Libertango ' , which he composed in the 1950s . The 1988 version of this song performed by Piazzolla on the bandoneon and Yo-Yo Ma on the cello is famous.

If you go to see tango in Argentina , there are roughly four ways to see it. Tango is seen in tourist destinations such as La Boca, while soliciting customers on the street, and many people, from ordinary people called milongas to professional tango dancers, come and join in. It is a place for dancing, a place specializing in tango, and a place specializing in tango shows.

If you learn tango in Korea, you are most likely to encounter the sports dance type of 'tango'... This makes it quite difficult to dance with other partners in a tango bar, let alone in Argentina. because[4] In tango, subtle signals are given for each beat of the movement, which can range from 6 to 8 beats or even 12 to 16 beats, and each partner must catch them.

For example, in the 8-beat basic step called 'Salida', depending on what signal is given on the 4th and 5th beats, whether the female partner crosses her feet or proceeds with a normal step varies, and sometimes ends on the 8th beat. You can also make a turn without making . Therefore, the spontaneity and unity of tango is sometimes expressed as "a dance performed with four legs and one heart."

In the case of the metropolitan area, the disadvantage is that academies and milongas are concentrated only in Hongdae and Gangnam in Seoul. It takes 1 to 2 hours one way to get to Hongdae Milonga from the outskirts of Gyeonggi-do. A round trip of 3 to 4 hours is standard. So people living in the outskirts become envious of people living in the Tengse area, the Milse area, and the Pase area. Even though it is far away from the tango academy or milonga, I go to learn tango because I love it so much and because it is attractive.

If you want to learn tango, rather than learning at a place like "Party Tango complete in 4 weeks", spend the first month taking lessons at a 'tango bar' that only teaches basic steps and how to communicate with your partner, or at an older club among the clubs. Register and take lessons from a Poomasi dancer, or register at an academy where you can receive lessons from professional tango dancers (not sports dancers) to brush up on your basic skills.

Beginners should first choose a tango academy , and the first thing to consider is accessibility. If you live on the outskirts of Gyeonggi-do, the round trip to Seoul can be tiring from the beginning. It takes surprisingly more energy to travel to and from the practice room than to take a tango class.

If you live in Bundang, Ilsan, Suwon, or Uijeongbu, there is a tango academy nearby, so I recommend you knock on the door. Once you have some interest and feel the need to level up, it is a good idea to look for an academy in Hongdae. Going to Hongdae from Gyeonggi-do to take lessons requires a lot of time investment, so you should be determined.

Tango is enjoyed socially at a place called a milonga, and almost 99% of the time, it is danced with a serrado abrazo. Some tango academies do not teach serrado at all in their 8-week beginner course, either because they are afraid that their students will feel burdened by the serrado, or because the instructors want to make the beginner level easy. If you learn from such a place, the side effect is that you can do the movements when dancing open, but when you do a serrado, you cannot lead or follow, so you have to learn it from the beginning. For example, you can do ocho cortado open, but when you do a serrado, you cannot lead or follow. It is recommended that you start learning serrado at least after 5 weeks, even if it is your first time learning.

Students who learned at a tango academy that only teaches open classes may not be able to do the serrado even though they have more than 6 months of experience. You have to have a certain level of cerrado to be able to go to milongas and enjoy social dances. This is because there are very few milongueros that dance openly in a milonga.

Beginning in the late 1990s, people began to enjoy it little by little.

In Korea , Kim Geun -hyung, who entered Tango, studied Tango, studied his own, and studied his own company in Gangnam, who taught Tango online and offline in 2000. In 2002, the company's name was changed to 'Beautiful Tango' and later established the association. Korea's first tango academy .

Gong Myeong-gyu is famous as the nephew of Gong Ok-jin . He immigrated to Argentina as a taekwondo instructor and returned to Korea as a tango master. He was very good at playing media and contributed to spreading tango widely, and even planned and held a performance called 'Tango Fever'. He also gave lessons, but his main activity was bringing Argentine dancers to perform with him. Korea's first tango dancer.

As for the club, 'Solo Tango ( https://cafe.daum.net/latindance) ' run by Kim Seong-gong is famous. It was active in Hongdae, and it had a great ability to recruit members, so many people gathered together and formed a large club of its own. However, rather than being taught by a skilled instructor, it was operated in a 'poomasi' manner, with senior members teaching junior members, so it was said that even though they were familiar with dance, there were few people who had learned it accurately. However, it is said that there are many skilled dancers now. . As the first club in Korea, it began its activities by recruiting its first riders in 2000, so it will celebrate its 23rd anniversary in 2023.

So, three people - Gong Myeong-gyu, who came from Argentina in the early 2000s, Kim Geun-hyung, who ran a tango academy , and Kim Seong-gong, who ran a tango club - are called the first generation of Korean tango.

Korea's first milonga, or tango dance hall, is known as 'Asuka' in Daejeon. Afterwards, ‘Tango Onada ’ opened in Hongdae in 2003 . It is the oldest milonga in Korea, and there are quite a few foreign tourists who come just to look around on weekends these days. (On weekends, it boasts such a huge population density that only top performers can dance.) Then, in 2004, a jackpot suddenly hit. The couple Lee Han and Han Kyung-ah took second place at the world competition held in Argentina. At the time, their tango careers weren't very long. Roh Moo-hyun after winning prize Although he performed in front of the president , Lee Han did not stay long in the tango world, which was later organized around milonga culture. However, Han Kyung-ah is treated as a master and is a respected figure in the domestic tango world as she continues to engage in wide-ranging and long-term activities such as holding classes and competitions, conducting overseas exchanges, and organizing domestic associations.

Throughout the 2000s, Seoul was centered around tango academies and clubs on weekdays, and Hongdae Onada and Apgujeong Tangeria on weekends.[6] Several small communities were formed around two milongas, and the number of tangueros (people who enjoy tango) began to increase little by little. Masters such as Pablo Veron began to visit Korea, and the Korean atmosphere of fun, lively, and immediate responses to performances gradually began to become known throughout the world of tango. (They had fun there / the atmosphere was good / they drank a lot, etc...) Milongas opened in Asuka in Daejeon, Busan, Pohang, and Gwangju, and people began to gather. A meaningful achievement was achieved by advancing to the semi-finals of the world competition just in time, and Korea's tango world, which had been growing little by little, has now grown to a level where milongas can be enjoyed every day.

Currently, according to Milongas-in.com ( https://milongas-in.com ), there are as many milongas in Korea as in China. Even if you calculate it as a percentage of the population, it is a huge amount (...)

In particular, Seoul is in the middle of Japan, China, and Hong Kong, so it is good for exchanges, and the number of foreigners visiting Korea at the right time has increased. When the competition is held, there are more foreign participants. The 'Tango Marathon', which only dances for 43 hours, is held not only in Korea, but also in Tokyo, Hiroshima, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Danang and Malaysia. It is no exaggeration to say that there is indeed an East Asian tango network. Now, most of the masters and famous performances have visited Seoul. Compared to Japan, where the tango population is declining, Korea is proud of being the center of tango in East Asia.

The Mundial de Tango is an international Argentina Tango contest held every year in Buenos Aires, Argentina. In general, it is called Mundial, and is considered the most prestigious competition for tango dancers around the world.

The Moon Dial is held in mid -August every year and will be part of the Tango Buenos Festival Y Mundial, organized by the Argentine Ministry of Culture. Participants enter the finals through regional qualifiers from around the world, and some countries operate official qualifiers separately.

The competition is divided into two sports:

The finals are held at Luna Park in Buenos Aires or at a large -sized venue, which is a festival and competition for thousands of spectators and world media every year.

Hui (Han Kyung -ah), a Korean, is the best performance ever. It was the second place in the Essenario. At that time, White Couple even performed in front of President Roh Moo -hyun.[7]

The music usually played when dancing at a milonga is music from the golden age of tango. The golden age of tango generally refers to the period from 1935 to 1952. Tango music is performed by an orchestra .

When beginners hear Darienso music, they may confuse it with milonga music. It has a lot of fast beats and the dancing style is similar to milonga.

Experts like Poogle’s music. There is even a saying that when Pugliese music suddenly starts playing in a milonga, beginners should pack their bags and get ready to go home. That's how difficult it is to interpret music. But the music is good. It usually blooms around the end of the day.

It is characterized by variations using the bandoneon. It feels like a mixture of Darienso's rhythm and Disarli's softness. The music can be said to be irregular as there are variables such as being fast and then suddenly slowing down.

It has a lyrical, rich, and magnificent charm. Today, Disarli's music is heard in milongas around the world.

It was introduced in I Live Alone . The place to take lessons is a book cafe called Other Na Jasin near Hapjeong Station.
I took lessons from Uno and Muse. She says her dancing skills are not bad.

He is a Solttang jockey and comes from a barter background. It is said that he learned tango when he had no work.
