The Art of Tango offers a systematic exploration of the
performance, arrangement and composition of the universally popular
tango. The author discusses traditional practices, the De Caro
school and the pioneering oeuvre of four celebrated innovators:
Pugliese, Salgan, Piazzolla and Beytelmann. With an in-depth focus
on both reception and practice, the volume and its companion
website featuring supplementary audio-visual materials analyse,
decode, compare and discuss literature, scores and recordings to
provide a deeper understanding of tango's artistic concepts,
characteristics and techniques. River Plate tango is explored
through the lens of artistic research, combining the study of oral
traditions and written sources. In addition to a detailed
examination of the various approaches to tango by the musicians
featured in this book, three compositions by the author embodying
creative applications of the research findings are discussed. The
volume offers numerous tools for developing skills in practice,
inspiring new musical output and the continuation of research
endeavours in the field. Illustrating the many possibilities of
this musical language that has captivated musicians and audiences
worldwide, this book is a valuable resource for everyone with an
interest in tango, whether they be composers, performers,
arrangers, teachers, music lovers or scholars in the field of
popular music studies.
