This is a great cultural experience that Tango Inferno is coming to Pittsburgh. Tango is always something that has interested me, and this article spurred me to research a bit more about tango in general and I found out that tango flamenco and tango milonga are very prevalent in Argentinian culture today. I also learned that the tango was originally a dance of the lower classes, and a dance of passion and fight. It took many years for it to grow into a respected form of dance for pleasure as well as competition.
