Tango en Flor: 100 years of Tango… in one blog post and five hours of Spotify

This playlist is Tango 101, an intro to the musical genre across the decades, starting with the emergence of the international superstar Carlos Gardel in the 1920s through the golden age of orchestras of the 30s and 40s, with Anibal Troilo and Osvaldo Pugliese, to the personalized artistry of Susana Rinaldi and the great Astor Piazzolla to the latest reinterpretations and remixes of our contemporaries, such as San Telmo Lounge and Bajofondo.

It would be foolish to try to represent the totality of tango in one playlist, but let this 5 hour collection serve as an introduction to the century long tradition of this vibrant and heartfelt Argentine addition to Western culture. Enjoy and Disfrutad!
