But I wonder, if you were putting together a *perfect* De Angelis vals tanda of four songs, what other two songs would you pick? I personally like 'Mi Carinito', but I don't think I have ever heard that played at a milonga. Most DJs would play 'Flores Del Alma', I guess, but to me it doesn't quite have the verve of the other songs, although it is very sweet. I think the other favourite is 'A Magaldi', but I am not such a big fan of that song. Anyone have any views on this?
Anyone suggest any other favourite vals tandas?" Sure. Here are four good vals tandas: De Angelis: 1. Flores del alma - sweet and slow(r) 2. Ilusion azul - quicker, intro fits well with the end of the Flores, Mi Carinito is nice, but a bit too slow after Flores - I would have replace the following two, if I were to play it second. A.Magaldi is indeed three stars vals (of five). 3. Pobre flor 4. Soñar y nada mas This tanda has nice energy hump about it. The duet in the end of Flores del alma builds up the energy and Ilusion carries it over to Pobre flor. Soñar y nada mas is good lyrical and slightly slower finish. Biagi: 1. El Ultimo Adios 2. Dejame amarte aunque sea un dia 3. Dichas, que vivi 4. Viejo porton Very nice, driven tanda of energetic valses. Laurenz: 1. Paisaje 2. Temblando 3. Mendocina 4. Mascarita Canaro: 1. En la noche azul 2. El vals de estudiante 3. Salud, dinero y amor 4. La Zandunga One of the quicker, fun Canaro tandas. -- Oleh Kovalchuke http://www.tangospring.com/tangoBlogTopicMusic.htm _______________________________________________ Tango-L mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/tango-l
