French Tangos for Violin

Mel Bay Publications, Inc. is proud to present this intriguing collection of fourteen tangos by French composers arranged for solo violin with piano accompaniment. The tango is a ballroom dance of Latin-American origin characterized by long pauses and stylized body positions. Most of these instrumental renditions were originally published as Musette pieces in France from the 1930’s through 1960’s (with a couple of newer arrangements).
