This is the mantra of Nuevo. This group of young, talented dancers in BsAs 
obviously believe they are at the forefront of 'modern tango'. But are they? 
Or, despite what Federico says, are they dancing a completely new and 
different kind of tango while the previous Tango continues unaffected and, 
largely, disinterested.

It seems we now have 2 separate Tangos that cannot assimilate and I don't 
think this has happened before. But my guess is that Nuevo will always need 
the tag of 'tango' to attract an audience?
