Beautiful Argentine Songs

[perry]

For many people who do not know the scope of Argentine music I suggest that you learn about Astor Piazzola. He to me captures the soul of Buenos Aires and Argentina . Below is his classic track Oblivion written when he was in exile from the South.

Para mucha gente que no sepa el alcance de la música de Argentina yo sugiera que usted aprenda sobre Astor Piazzola.
Él a mí captura el alma de Buenos Aires y de la Argentina. Abajo está su olvido clásico escrito cuando él estaba en exilio del sur.

I agree with you Pericles. I am going to get my list of ARG tracks and link then here today for you.

There cannot be very many people called Pericles in Buenos Aires - did we meet at a party last year on a roof in Recoleta? I was with my wife and we were staying in one of BAStay's apartments in the same building as their office?

"Entonces" de Victor Heredia

unfortunately the video on YouTube is of a concert by a very old Victor. I recommend the CD version

Some classic folklore i've been listening recently.

José Larralde - Herencia pa' un hijo gaucho (fragment)
Alfredo Zitarrosa - Guitarra negra. He is from Uruguay, but whatever.

Astor Piazzola for me is a genius and a national treasure now after being derided by his fellow countrymen for his new tango .
His beautiful song Milonga Del Angel is one of the last centurys best piece of music.

Astor Piazzola para mí es un genio y un tesoro nacional ahora después de que se mofara de por sus compatriotas para su nuevo tango.
Su hermoso Angel de la canción Milonga Del es uno de los últimos siglos mejor pedazo de música.
