Abstract

The article discusses the role of the violin in the Argentine Tango. It offers biographical sketches of the most seminal Argentine tango violinists. It also offers a guide to the most important performance practice issues. The Argentine milonga is still part of the tango orchestra repertory. Variants of early tango, milonga and habanera could be heard in the growing outskirts of Buenos Aires, Argentina.
