Tango @BsAs

In Buenos Aires, I have been to a bay area called La Boca and a bar called Bar Sur to see the show of Tango.

Boca is the oldest bay in Argentina, like Santos in Brazil. Historically it was a place for the immigrants to enter to the country. Then, Tango was born as a result of the cultural mixture.

Nowadays it is a more turistic area. From my point, it is a bit disappointing. But in terms of the history, it is still worth visiting.

In another day, I went to the bar with my friends. First, we went to the center area of city to buy a cheaper ticket. It costed A$70 for the entry - if you pay directly, it costs two times more.

Night comes. We walked to the bar located in the east area of the capital. The show started later than explained.

A band played in dark with some little lights. And then, a couple started dancing. There were two couples to dance in that night. But I like this first one.

Among the musics behind the dances, there was Libertango, a music recently played by Yo Yo Ma.

Frankly speaking, I had thought the music was composed by the cello performer. But it is not true. This amazing music was composed by a famous Argentine composer, Astor Piazzolla.

Anyway, they were dancing in a more sophisticated way. It was more 舞う than ダンスする.

The man led his woman, and she followed him expressing her love.

With the music, the message gets deeper and deeper.

What I have to say is: You SHOULD visit the city to see the show of Tango!
