Dear Mario et al,
As Sergio wrote, this is an article from the Clarin newspaper. It was
written by one of their regular tango reporters Irene Amuchastegui and
Laura Falcoff.
The translation (by Sergio??) is terrific too.

and Christine Ladas of San Francisco, and even this traditionalist old
lady can tell my fellow Nuevo bashers that they dance quite simply and
beautifully in line of dance at traditional milongas.

Hi all,
I am looking for a really good description of tango IN SPANISH for our
Spanish-speaking students. My writing & translating abilities aren't
sufficient to do it myself. Can anyone direct me to a website?
