Tango dancers so it's not modern dance incorporating a few Tango poses, 
it's actually Tango incorporating a lot of modern dance moves. The question 
is, when does it stop being one and become the other. On that I have no

IMO, it depends, if it is a tango presentation at let's say Sunderland, and 
dancers want to incorporate ballet movements to one of Pugliese's late tangos. 
Then, it is a no go by a show of hands. The rationale is seasoned tango people 
would have rather gone to see a ballet performance featuring Pugliese's music.
