A tour through the history of the society of Buenos Aires which produced Tango

Tango is a musical expresion with it’s own identity that carries in it’s blood the candombre, the milonga, the payada, the havana, the andalusian tango, the chotis, the poka, the operetta, the mazurka and the farce, to name just a few of it’s originators.

This music reflects with majesty the cultural sinchronicity of the river plate, where influences african, indigenous, creole, cuban, jewish, italian, german, polish, spanish and french are all dominant.
