 | | The dance progresses as a smooth walk around the floor and dancers have the possibility to listen to and interpret the music. |  | | Without them the tango dance will lack its full musicality and emotional range. |  | | Inventive ways of using the known vocabulary to interpret the music is judged to be superior dancing. |

 | | The rhythm of the guitars playing the Tango flamenco or andaluz could not be reproduced in orchestra instruments and with the piano, so the Tango andaluz or flamenco was modified with the habanera rhythm. |  | | World recording companies set up offices in Buenos Aires, which resulted in mass recordings of Tango orchestras and singers. |  | | Based on the very few historical records left to trace the roots of the Argentine Tango, most of the historical information contained in Silingo's books are from newspapers, books and her family roots and connection to the Argentine Tango music. |
