Tom,

Everything you (and especially what Trini said in her closing remarks) said
in your post I agree with.

I too could not understand the music at 1st and walked away from tango for a
while.  Then came back and still could understand it.  

In a new city I have found a better appreciation of the music and listen to
the thousands of tracks I have as often as often as I can including in the
car.  Love discovering the underlying "possibilities" of the music
(including in the not so popular tunes) even if I cannot translate it to a
move at times.

If anyone wants to really understand the music and the mood of the dancers,
get them to DJ.
