Document Summary
Andrew vogel and greg bufford introduction to music. Carlos gardel- caminito: carlos gardel was a french argentine singer, songwriter, composer and actor, and the most prominent figure in the history of tango. Carminito was a tango song that was recorded in 1926. The song sounds a little depressing and sad. The tone of the music stays pretty much the same throughout the entire piece. Astor piazolla- libertango: tango music that was released in 1974. It is comparatively modern than the last one. The tone sounds like someone is going to war. The music is exciting but a little different. The tone stays the same but the pitch goes up and down a lot. All the music sounded sort of the same in a way. But the music is really interesting and the composer is very talented. Willie colon- el gran varone: the music sounded very romantic and soothing. The tone changes after 20 seconds or so.
