How Chacarera is related to Tango? 

Probably one of Tango's precursors! 

Also: it's really Argentinian! Have you been to Buenos Aires? Played at Milongas regularly as an intermezzo ... and people tend to go wild! 

Unfortunately there's rarely good teaching of the Zapateo ... and I haven't yet found a good instructional video about Zapateo on Youtube either. ;-( [any hint/link very much appriciated!]

Saludos des Hollanda,
Christian
