During the time when Covid shut us down we did a series of virtual milongas, performing on Zoom and via internet-radio simultainuesly. These were mini-milongas, composed of 3 song tandas representative of the variety and style of a standard milonga. This is the idea re-visited for this record, to create a reenactment of the "Heimatmilonga"", or Home milonga, to get people in the mood when not able to attend an actual milonga.

We embark in a relaxed mode, with d'Agostino and Vargas, building up drama from La nueva vecina to No vendra. We follow that with another, but different, excellent singer leader combination, in the thirties' partnership between Fresedo and Ray, beginning with the light nostalgic touches of Niebla del Riachuelo, culminating in the romance of the steps of Araca la cana.

For the valses, I've selected a tanda of early D'Arienzo pieces, something to get any party going! First there are a couple of flowing guardia vieja instrumentals, culminating in a more playful Tu olvido with estribillo sung by Cabral.

From there we build up intensity in a tanda by Demare. First we do his version of his own enticing Malena where Demare's piano interacts delightfully with Miranda's voice. Following that are a couple of emotive numbers sung masterfully by Berón, ending with Una emoción.

Then we bring up the drama, of course, by a tanda of Pugliese instrumentals, first the melodic Patetico, then the more up-beat N.N., finishing with a more relaxed De floreo from 1950.

The milongas are by Canaro's orchestra, first the Milonga de mis tiempos, with its wonderful interplay of various instruments on top a rigorous habanera beat. Increasing the tempo is the Milonga brava with its characteristic velvet Maida estribilo, finishing in a brighter node of the instrumental Reliquias porteñas.

As a finale, it is fitting to relax a bit to an early tango tanda by Di Sarli and Rufino, starting with the light-footed Corazon and culminating in the regretful nostalgia of Lo pasado pasó.

To close, we have the delightful La cumparsita by Lomuto from 1936, where the violins and piano interact in combination with the bandoneons to dramatize the composition as a perfect and balanced end to an evening.

Reviews

Review : Eckart Haerter

Die CD kann man bedenkenlos durchlaufen lassen. Guter, alter, unsterblicher, traditioneller Tango. Man ist sofort wieder mitten drin mit dem vollen Gefühlsspektrum.

Als DJ würde ich auflegen:
Nr. 1 d'Agostino/Vargas (unverfänglich, gut für den Anfang)
Nr. 7 Vals von d'Arienzo - hinreissend
Nr. 10 Malena "unsere" Interpretation von Demare/Miranda - immer wieder gerne
Nr.13-15 Pugliese, eine Klasse für sich in der Tangomusik (hier besonders die 13!)
Nr. 16-18 Herrliche, traditionelle, recht folkloristische Milongas vom unverwüstlichen Francisco Canaro (auf seine Weise war auch er "der Grösste".
Nr. 22 Unter den hunderten Interpretationen von LaCumparsita kann man diese wunderbar nostalgische von Edgardo Donato gern nehmen.

Alle von mir ausgesuchten gehen - ausser ins Gefühlszentrum - unmittelbar in die Beine.

(Zur Erklärung: Ich war 30 Jahre lang: Tangotänzer, Tangolehrer, Tango-DJ und Tango-Textübersetzer)
