"Tango Voices" also includes a CD featuring performances by original artists of twenty-six tangos. A superbly organized and presented showcase of the tango, "Tango Voices" is highly recommended for personal, professional, academic, and community library Music & Dance reference collections.

2: Like finding a perfect Tango dance partner
Well, maybe a perfect dance partner is better...
This publication is a Gem! So much information packed between it's covers.. and on top of all that.. a CD with all the wonderful pieces described in the book.
Donald Cohen, the multi-talented man who compiled and edited this book, fullfilled exactly what he intended.. "This book was written primarily for those who know little about Tango, and for those who know much about the dance, but little about the music or songs to which it is performed".
I've had this book only 2 weeks,, and I'm on the third reading..and have listened to the 26 pieces of music at least 5 times..
