Tango De La Docta - Traditional Argentinian Tango

‘La Docta’ is the nickname of the city of Córdoba, the geographical heart of Argentina. Recorded ‘a la parrilla’ (‘on the spot’ in the tango jargon), in a sense like jazz musicians play standards. Here is an evolved way of playing ‘a la parrilla’ that incorporates all the influences that made modern Tango, and coupled with the strong and emotional vocal performance by Juanjo Lopez Vidal, Tango de La Docta captures the spirit with which tango was born in the patios of the old tenement houses of Buenos Aires.
