Tango Adentro


Music and Poetry in Tango

Not all the lyrics of tango are about love found and lost. Some of the lyrics act as a reflection of the society in which the people are living. They give us a sense of the history, the people and their daily lives. I will try to select lyrics that give us some insight into the societies of the day.
  • Seis de Enero - Sixth of January (with mp3)
  • La cieguita - The blind little girl (with mp3)

    The are many tangos about tango itself, or about those who participate in related activities, whether it is the musician, the singer or the dancer.
  • Bailarín de contraseña - Dancer for password (with mp3)
