Cover imageThe meaning of Tango: the story of Argentinian dance.

Author: Denniston, Christine

Published: 2007

From the backstreets of Buenos Aires to Parisian high society, The Meaning of Tango is the extraordinary story of the dance that captivated the world - a tale of politics and passion, immigration and romance.

The Meaning of Tango describes how the dance originated in the uniques circumstances of late nineteenth-century Argentina, when an influx of European workers and an excess of men led to the dance's development. In the first half of the book, Christine Denniston charts Tango's meaning, purpose, history and development; the second part is a primer of basic tango technique.
