I have no problem with using it to buy a tango album / downloading a number of songs every few months or so. So any other specific album / song suggestions from Jep or Andreas (or anyone else) are welcomed.<br /><br />I'd like to keep the music consistent for at least a period of several months at a time so that we actually can get to know it. I think potentially it's a good way to build up a knowledge base over time. And as David has pointed out elsewhere, the more you dance to a piece of music, the more you get a feeling for what works and what doesn't.<br /><br />Does the list of music <a href="http://www.dublintango.com/mainpages/TangoMusicGuide_v1.html" rel="nofollow">here</a> seem like useful songs to know?<br /><br />From the current cds I'd take out the Firpo and the Vals (at least until Andreas gets round to teaching a Vals workshop in London).ghostnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8391293127288856260.post-58917293466529745922010-09-06T20:35:02.692+01:002010-09-06T20:35:02.692+01:00@Jep, @Andreas, great.

I might be able to find a tanda of some of those from the 10-set, or we can dig around in the box at the room and just guess. My playlist was fine for one occasion because it's music that gets played a lot, so we can learn it - but we need something else as well.msHedgehoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05719152265628932122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8391293127288856260.post-38756080342529040792010-09-06T15:51:27.814+01:002010-09-06T15:51:27.814+01:00Good stuff for general practice is D'Agostino/...Good stuff for general practice is D'Agostino/Vargas. It's got a bit of everything, compas, interesting rhythmic patterns, melody, great vocals. Very balanced and tasty.<br />To practice rhythmic stuff, Tanturi/Castillo is very good.<br />For rhythmic walking, I like to use Rodriguez/Moreno.<br />And Di Sarli is always good. Consider using the old Sexteto Di Sarli recordings such as Chau Pinela for a change. Recently I have discovered the excellency of the 1951/52 (Music Hall, I believe) recordings like those on Glorias Del Tango. Just listen to El Ciruja and try to stop yourself dancing. Pity the sound is not all that great.Andreashttp://www.tangokombinat.de/uk_concept.htmnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8391293127288856260.post-70166964648227431842010-09-02T19:20:30.618+01:002010-09-02T19:20:30.618+01:00How about the awesomeness of :
