The tango began first as an embraced couple dance, completely original and unusual for the level of the dances of the 19th century. That sensual dance was promoting a musical metamorphosis until at the end of the 19th century it began to shape a new musical genre: tango. However, despite the fact that the tangos, throughout the period of transformation that led to their birth, always sang and received lyrics, the composition of the lyrics interspersed with tango music and the development of a singing style of tango, they had to wait almost two decades more. |

The song of tango is the lyrical and musical composition in which the lyrics respond to the rhythmic and emotional characteristics of the music and dance. Evolutively, tango appeared for the first time as a bold dance of a united couple, which first promoted the appearance of a new musical genre that would sustain it and then a type of song that fitted the characteristics of dance and music, called tango song. It is considered that the first tango song was: My sad night, by Samuel Castriota and Pascual Contursi, premiered and recorded by Carlos Gardel in 1917. Gardel, in turn, has been considered as the singer who created and developed the technical and expressive characteristics of the song of tango. |

The person and the image of Gardel have been the object of popular idolatry, especially in the countries of Argentina and Uruguay, placing it in a place of myth and cultural symbol that still maintains its validity. He is the most known representative of the musical genre "Tango" in the world as the initiator and maximum exponent of these song.
