Instrumentally, it reflects a blend of robust and lively strings alongside punctuated bandoneon flourishes, symbolizing the confluence of diverse influences coming together in a harmonious, yet complex dance. The music might start with a bold, commanding introduction, setting a rhythmic foundation that invites dancers to engage both with precision and passionate abandon.
