37/2025 Alfredo De Angelis & Oscar Larroca - Argentine tango tanda

...A great mix of melody and rhythm and from the large discography you should have plenty of options for a few good tandas.

Carlos Di Sarli

35/2025 Carlos Di Sarli instrumental tanda 1958

This is a very straight-forward tanda of some of the most played tangos of Carlos Di Sarli. Most played for a good reason!

Rodolfo Biagi

21/2025 Rodolfo Biagi's instrumental tangos from 1950s

Biagi's amazing instrumental tango 'El Recodo' from 1952 is one tango classic I play a lot less than I would want to. Let's see if we can create a tanda around the song that would do it justice!

Alfredo Gobbi

14/2025 Alfredo Gobbi & Jorge Maciel - El violín romántico del tango

Here's a late night tanda perfect for a marathon set or an after-party. While these songs are perhaps more unknown, I believe they are still very danceable and beautiful.

Mixed orchestras
