Milonga Loca playlist, May 27, 2017

This holiday weekend, I was asked to take over a mixed-traditional and alternative milonga at a venue where I never played and never set up anything. We arrived 40 minutes early to make sure there are no big surprises. Soon, I started playing music - not for dancers yet, but more like a sound check and a mood-setter for the setup

May is the birthday month of one of the tango pioneers, an Afro-Argentine Félix Gutiérrez. "El Negro" Gutiérrez, born on May 19, 1909, has made his way into tango by a lucky chance. In his teens, Félix Gutiérrez was a promising amateur boxer, and, having won a championship in his hometown Mar del Plata, he decided to move to Buenos Aires to pursue a professional career. But he also liked to play guitar and to sing, so he wanted to continue taking guitar lessons in the capital city. The music school Gutiérrez chose was run by ... Julio de Caro's father. And soon, the 17 year-old aspiring boxer started singing in De Caro's orchestra, and abandoned plans of a career in sports. The times were getting tough with the start of the Great Depression. Like most musicians of the time, Felix tried making a living in different groups and in different styles, but nothing lasted. At last, he was invited to join the orchestra of Edgardo Donato, and won instant acclaim! Their first, seminal song, "El huracan", will be played late during the milonga. Let's start honoring Félix Gutiérrez with his stellar 1936 vals:
17. Edgardo Donato - Horacio Lagos "Quién Será (Vals)" 1941 2:15

The 2nd tanda with the voice of Félix Gutiérrez and Donato's orchestra. I believe that "El huracan", "The hurricane", with its powerfully rhythmic, accelerated music was the forerunner of the D'Arienzo revolution, which is credited with saving tango a mere 3 years later. In the early 1930s, when the popularity of tango dancing waned and the economy was in the dumps, few tango orchestras could survive playing music for the remaining dancers. Many disbanded altogether; others, like Canaro's and Fresedo's, transitioned to performances, theaters, and movies. But Donato's mostly immigrant Uruguayan outfit stayed course, modernizing the vibe of the tango music in the process, getting the younger generation to pay attention to what once was their parents' dance form. In 1932, Edgardo Donato won a contract with a new recording studio, the ascendant "Victor". The orchestra needed to make a bold opening statement, and Donato hired Félix Gutiérrez and recorded "El huracan" for its debut. As it was customary for the era, the vocalist sings just a part of one of the three stanzas, and a part of one bridge - but in this case, the verse libre stanza about a rose bush destroyed by the hurricane is recited, bitterly, rather than sung. The lines of the bridge then tell of an insincere woman who destroyed the dreams, whose kisses were ice-cold and whose heart was full of hidden venom ... but without knowing the skipped lines, you might not guess that it was the woman who was metaphorized as the hurricane of destruction in the opening stanza. 
37. Edgardo Donato - Félix Gutiérrez "El Huracan" 1932 2:56
38. Edgardo Donato - Instrumental "El Estagiario" 1938 2:26

44. "Hagedel Sheli"  0:28
Orquesta Romantica Milonguera has just released its first album, and the raspy voice of Marisol Martinez sounded quite remarkable, so I couldn't resist putting together a tanda. But with the studio speakers, I got an impression that the sound was somewhat dull, not as juicy as it seemed on the laptop... 
45. Romantica Milonguera - Marisol Martinez  "En esta noche de luna" 2017 3:37
46. Romantica Milonguera - Marisol Martinez  "Oigo tu voz" 2017 3:13
47. Romantica Milonguera - Marisol Martinez  "Solamente ella" 2017 3:22
48. Zhanna Aguzarova "Cats" 1987 0:21
Hector Maure
I often play tangos from D'Arienzo's earliest periods, both instrumental and with the voice of Echague, accented by ringing-crystal piano keys of Biagi (until 1938) and Polito (until 1940). Both Biagi and Polito left to lead their own orchestras, and took a number of key musicians with them (the first one achieved remarkable success, while the second one was kept off best venues and recording studios by the increased clout of Juan Polito's former employer). But as it happened repeatedly, "The King of the Beat" rebuilt his orchestra with a remarkable continuity. Fulvio Salamanca, another genius of piano, came to replace Polito. With the changing tastes of the times, D'Arienzo's music of the 1940s becomes slightly less exuberant, darker and deeper, while still true to the trademark domination of the beat. Some of the most beautiful records of this period feature the voice of Héctor Mauré (hired in the end of 1940), another aspiring teenage boxer (he fought for the Students Sports Association of BsAs) who abandoned boxing for tango. After the 1955 military coup, Héctor Mauré was blacklisted from TV and radio waves for his Peronist sympathies, but he fought back by contributing a lot of time and energy to keeping tango alive during its "darkest years" in the 1960s and 1970s. Let's celebrate Héctor Mauré by a 1941 tanda!
49. Juan D'Arienzo - Héctor Mauré  "Dime, mi amor" 1941 2:40
50. Juan D'Arienzo - Héctor Mauré  "Infamia" 1941 3:07
51. Juan D'Arienzo - Hector Maure  "El olivo (El olvido)" 1941 2:51

The rhythmic energy continues with a tangofox tanda
53. Enrique Rodriguez - Armando Moreno  "Se va el tren" 1942 3:11
54. Enrique Rodriguez - Armando Moreno.  "No Apures Por Dios Postillon" 1945 2:59
55. Enrique Rodriguez - Roberto Flores "Para mi eres divina" 1938 2:28
56. Sergey Nikitin  "Pesnya Sleptsov " 1988 0:26
57. Lhasa De Sela  "La Cara de la Pared" 2005 4:23
58. Carlos Libedinsky  "Vi Luz y Subí" 2005 3:18
59. Shigeru Umebayashi "In The Mood For Love" 2001 2:29
In another intersection of my hobbies, tango and genealogy, my newly found third cousin Yakov, a great fan of brooding and foreboding music, shared a new album of Endless Boogie and I couldn't resist using some of the tracks for cortinas.
60. Endless Boogie  "Trash Dog cortina" 2017 0:21
A classic non-traditional tanda with a super-traditional arrabal vibe.
61. Orquesta Tipica Fervor de Buenos Aires "Quien Sos" 2007 3:08
62. Orquesta Tipica Fervor de Buenos Aires "E.G.B." 2007 2:26

65. Zazie "J'envoie valser" 1995 2:52
It's close to midight and to milonga's end and it looks like folksy waltzes aren't cutting it, so I scrap this tanda and make a plan to keep playing only tangos in the remaining time. But, see below...
66. Zhanna Aguzarova "Old Hotel" 1987 0:22

March 1943 newspaper ad for Angel D'Agostino and
Angel Vargas. From late Michael Krugman's  blog
We've just marked birthday of Angel D'Agostino (25 May 1900 - 16 Jan 1991), a wonderful musician whose tangos, simple and beautiful, are so welcome at almost any moment in the milongas. D'Agostino was the milonguero's musician, and like the old milongueros, he not only liked dancing tango himself, but also partied, gambled, and forswore marriage. Almost all recordings of D'Agostino are with the voice of Angel Vargas, and the two Angels set a high standard for joint work of the orchestra and the singer in tango for the dancers. I already wrote about life of Angel Vargas, about his hardscrabble beginnings and a long road to recognition. The life path of Angel D'Agostino is, in some ways, exactly the opposite. He grew up in a family of classic pianists and received great musical education, but chose the bohemian life of a tanguero. A funny tidbit to add: as a child, D'Agostino played piano in a trio where the little violinist was Juan D'Arienzo!
71. Ángel D'Agostino - Ángel Vargas, glosas: Julian Centeya "Cafe Dominguez" 1955 2:58
72. Ángel D'Agostino - Ángel Vargas "Caricias" 1940 2:44

Wait, wait! A birthday girl walks in during the penultimate tanda ... and with a request to play Piazzolla's "Dede", a record which isn't even in my collection. But a vals it must be...

Missoula Spring Tango opening milonga playlist, May 2017

It's such a pleasure to join the Missoula Spring Tango crew again, to reconnect with the old friends and to make new friends, and to breath the spring air of this beautiful town between the verdant hills, with its neighborhoods abloom with lilac. Many thanks to Patrick and Lori for organizing the event, to the hometown tangueros for being such a wonderful support team (and there were 10 Salt Lake tangueros in Missoula this year!), and to all volunteers, teachers, and DJs who made this great weekend possible.
Spring flowers on the tables ..
time to start a milonga

The opening milonga of the fest was announced as 90% traditional, and, in the end of the night, it worked as expected, with an approximately 2.5 non-trad tandas out of 25 total. But adding these little bits and pieces of non-traditional music didn't quite work the way I expected at first. I tried sneaking in "danceable cortinas" of alternative music, but they would invariably clear the floor and draw no dancers, so I cut short every single danceable cortina attempt. On the other hand the Downtown Dance Collective hall was ready 15 minutes ahead of time, and I started planning an impromptu bonus "pre-quel" tanda of alternative milongas for the handful of couples already eager to get onto the floor. But beyond this "tanda number zero", everything took a very classic shape.
001. Trio Garufa  "Silueta Porteña (Electro Milonga)" 2008 2:35
002. Bajofondo Tango Club  "Leonel, El Feo Milonga Cut" 2004 2:15
003. Otros Aires  "Perro Viejo" 2016 3:21
Missoula Spring Tango is a real international event (if only mostly because the friendly Canadian tango communities are "just" 5 or 6 hours drive away), and the opening milonga was 5 hours long, so I went to a big-event 4-song tanda format despite knowing that the smaller local milongas adhere to a 3-song format. The rest of the fest milongas actually kept the tanda lengths of 3 songs, so I am still unsure if my choice was the best. But hey, it worked pretty well, and it gave me just enough extra challenge, and it also made all of us proud about becoming "real big tango grownups" :)

I came to Missoula right off the plane from a root-searching trip to Israel, a country which has become independent exactly 69 years ago, on May 14, 1948. Tonight, some of the cortinas celebrate Israeli independence, and the first of them is an ode to the white-and-blue flag.

"Born for peace", another popular patriotic track
023.   "Noladeti Lashalom cortina"  0:36
In 1940, even Di Sarli's orchestra had to be intensely rhythmic in its repertoire, likely because the recording companies, encouraged by D'Arienzo's explosive success, still remained convinced that nothing else sells. Driving rhythmic and yet beautifully elegant in Di Sarli's way.

Osvaldo Fresedo was born 120 years ago, on May 5, 1897. Time to celebrate Fresedo with an extra tanda, beyond everyone's beloved vocals of Robereto Ray which I already played half an hour earlier. Now it's time for the 1939-1941 recordings with the voice of Ricardo Ruiz and Fresedo's trademark cascading harp.

Just as "Cara sucia" begins to play, I receive a request from the organizers, to finish the milonga on time (I was ready to go for another hour or more lol, but it is hard to sustain a Friday night milonga past 2 am, especially at a location where many guests drove for many hours to get there). So the just-started tanda changes shape on the fly, becoming another mixed set:
