Tango
was
inspired
by
the
music
of
Cuba
called
the
(
and
danzon
)
.
It
started
when
immigrants
started
entering
,
the
capital
of
Argentina
.
Tango
music
related
to
for
the
most
part
in
brothels
and
.
Later
on
,
it
took
a
more
nostalgic
and
romantic
turn
.
Tango
is
often
applied
to
dances
in
a
duple
or
rhythm
;
employing
polyphonous
arrangement
and
effective
use
of
legato
and
staccato
techniques
to
create
rhythmically
and
melodies
.
Each
individual
instrument
has
a
particular
way
to
interpret
this
pattern
,
varying
the
length
and
stress
of
the
strong
beats
.
This
was
aided
by
the
peculiar
characteristics
of
the
,
which
is
played
over
the
player's
,
is
helped
by
the
up
and
down
motion
of
the
in
sync
with
the
leg
to
provide
a
beat
.
It
articulates
the
note
first
with
the
keys
(
on
the
)
and
then
with
the
bellows
(
on
the
)
,
an
effect
known
as
(
English
trans
:
drag
)
.
The
,
sometimes
doubled
by
the
left
hand
of
the
piano
,
provides
the
backbone
emphasis
on
the
and
beats
.
The
bass
slides
(
)
into
the
first
beat
and
the
piano
simulates
a
slide
with
groups
of
gracenotes
(
)
.
The
violins
participate
in
creating
rhythm
with
short
staccato
down
-
bow
.
The
underlying
pulse
is
what
tango
musicians
refer
to
as
the
,

of
the
tango
