‘can you say what it is about tango music that got you/keeps you hooked?’
#tangoquotes #tango_quotes
"But tango music spoke to me somehow. The layers, the call-and-response structure, the variations on parts, the rich orchestral jazz of it all.
Oh, I know that other music has these elements in varying degrees. Freedom within structure! Maybe that's the key ingredient I feel with Argentine tango music. The music doesn't seem to dictate repeating patterns of dance interpretation. It allows for many interpretations. It even changes its mind over the course of a song. It has a depth of feeling that can provoke a profound kind of joy when, even with a sad song, the dancers make an intimate connection with each other and with the music."
