TANGO CANYENGUE
ES LA ESCENCIA PURA DEL
COMIENZO DEL TANGO.
SUS ORIGENES SE REMONTAN AL 1900.
SU SIGNIFICADO EN AFRO ES “CAMINAR CADENCIOSO”
EL CANYENGUE CONTIENE EL ABRAZO DE ORIGEN. SU ANDAR ES SUAVE, PICARESCO, SENSUAL
Y DIVERTIDO, JUEGA CON LA RAPIDEZ DE LOS PIES Y CONTRATIEMPOS DE LA MUSICA
SU PRINCIPAL CARACTERÍSTICA ES EL SENTIDO MUSICAL, YA QUE PARA BAILARLO ES
PRECISO ESTAR SIEMPRE AL COMPÁS, PISANDO EN EL TIEMPO MUSICAL EXACTO.
SUS MOVIMIENTOS SON CORTADOS, CORRESPONDEN A LOS COMPASES DEL 4 X 8 (ORQUESTAS
DE FRANCISCO CANARO, FELIPE ANTONIO, LA TIPICA VICTOR, DE CARO, TUBATANGO,
ETC.) Y CON EL PASAR DE LOS AÑOS SE TRANSFORMARON EN EL TANGO ACTUAL
DEL 2 X 4.
UTILIZA LA DISOCIACION DEL CUERPO PARA LA MARCA, LA CAMINATA A TIERRA, Y UNA COMBINACION CONSTANTE DE TIEMPO Y CONTRATIEMPO PARA BAILAR. TODOS ESTOS, ELEMENTOS BASICOS, PARA BAILARSE UN BUEN TANGO!
TANGO CANYENGUE
IT IS THE PURE
ESSENCE OF THE BEGINNING OF TANGO. ITS ORIGINS DATE BACK TO THE EARLY NINETEEN
HUNDREDS. ITS AFRO MEANING IS 'WALKING WITH CADENCE'. CANYENGUE CONTAINS THE
ORIGINAL TANGO EMBRACE. CANYENGUE IS A SENSUAL AND ENJOYABLE STYLE OF TANGO,
WITH PLAYFUL GAIT AND RHYTHM. ITS MAIN CHARACTERISTIC IS ITS MUSICALITY, AS
DANCING CANYENGUE PRECISELY MEANS TO BE IN TIME, WALKING IN THE RIGHT MUSICAL
TEMPO. ITS MOVEMENTS ARE SYNCOPATED, THEY CORRESPOND TO A 4 BY 8 MEASURE (PLAYED
BY ORCHESTRAS SUCH AS CANARO, FELIPE ANTONIO, TUBATANGO, DE CARO, TIPICA DE
VICTOR) WHICH, WITH THE PASSING OF TIME, BECAME TODAY'S 2 BY 4 MEASURE OF
TANGO. CANYENGUE USES BODY DISSOCIATION FOR THE INDICATION, WALKING WITH FIRM
GROUND CONTACT, AND A PERMANENT COMBINATION OF ON- AND OFF-BEAT RHYTHM. ALL
THESE ELEMENTS ARE ESSENTIAL TO DANCE ANY GOOD TANGO!
