Here is my favourite tango in 2 different versions.

Next time you are in your music shop, look for Piazolla, coz he wrote loads of them.

I cannot post them here, coz it is copyrighted.

Willie the Lion Smith wrote a beautiful tango. Anybody heard it?

And incidentally has anybody got any music of Willie the Lion Smith's?

Tango is a folk music from my land, Argentina... yo must really listen to Piazzolla:
Adios Nonino
Invierno Porteņo
Libertango
Learning:

Chopin Polonaise Op. 53
Brahms Op. 79 No. 2
Rachmaninoff Op. 16 No. 4 and 5

check out Bill Matthiesen's "Argentinian Tangos For Keyboard" put out by Mel Bay. Very good collection of Tangos (copies of the actual original scores!) from 1900-1920. Very fun to play!

It's real, isn't it? I read somewhere while googling a few minutes ago that it had 32 members and you were one of them. Wow.
