Zamba is a traditional dance of Argentina. It is a style of Argentinian music and Argentinian folk dance. Zamba is very different from its homophone the samba – musically rhythmically temperamentally. It is afro-indigenous compared to the Samba in the steps of the dance and in its costume. It has six beats to the bar and is a majestic dance performed by couples who circle each other waving white handkerchiefs very elegantly.
