It began in the middle of the nineteenth century, in the Province of Buenos Aires in the suburbs of Avellaneda, Sarandí, Barracas, La boca. Later, they began to listen in other cities such as Rosario and Santa Fe.
This popular music emerges from the lower classes as a manifestation of the unions of different cultures, Creoles, Africans, Uruguayans, and other European immigrants, popular music of my people, a unanimous mode of expression, a true passion that surpasses the language barrier , Music widely heard in my country and in various parts of the world, in Japan is held once a year the world festival of Tango.

The tango rhythm, its nostalgic atmosphere resembles cuban and candombe music, belong to the same African roots, plus the music of the gauchos of the interior, but it should be noted that tango does not derive from any previously known dance.
It is a truly human expression, with valuable musical contributions, the genuine Rio de la Plata, the Havana of Cuba and the milonga of Brazil plus the contributions of European immigrants, for all this cultural mixtures, is that the tango is full of emotions A real passion for my people.
The tango is an excessively popular music, in its beginnings it was forbidden in the upper classes, the Catholic church rejected music for its association with brothels and brothels, access to music was limited, only heard in the slums, in The ports, still lifes, prisons and brothels.

This is a brief review of how the tango evolved over the years. There are different types of tangos or different inspiration to create or sing.
The tango suburban is the music of origin, that of popular expression, that of the suburbs, arrabalero comes from Arabic and means 'outside the walls'
Tango disillusionment, as the fundamental basis of its glosses or its lyrics is the amorous disappointment, in the tango the man cries and expresses his pain and his emotions, against face to the world where it says the man should not cry.
The Tango sexual desire, the origin of the tango makes references to dockworkers, people on board, no possibility of contact with a woman and the days running weighs on their sexual desire, closely related to brothels, where they must pay to receive love , This is the plot of the lyrics of this type of tango.
The tango gender issue, is the typical macho tango, are controversial songs where the violence of gender, including femicide, shake in a mock volume.
The tango the passage of time, in this genre the lyrics are based on life itself, where the years passed, leaving things unfinished, children became great and for wandering or working hard missed the best moments of their lives.
There are other genres such as love, death, social problems and poetry.
The best known tangos are La cumparsita, Caminito, Cambalache, Gira, Smoking I wait, For a head, My beloved Buenos Aires, The day that you want me, To return, Coffee the humidity.
Over the years there were countless musicians and songwriters of the tango would be impossible to name all, but as in all things there is always one that stands out. And they are worthy of being named.
