Continuity in the years 1960 and 1970



Horacio Salgan is, with Astor Piazzolla, the most important figure of the medium of the years 1950 until the years 1980. Without disavowing the roots of the Tango, it makes evolve/move its orchestrations, first of all with its own orchestra, then with Quinteto Real and the duet Salgan/of Lio.

As for the pianist Mariano Mores, it continues in the purest tradition of the orchestral Tango, like had developed it before its Master Francisco Canaro.

Leopoldo Federico, which plays in the orchestras of Gobbi, Salgan and Octeto Buenos Aires d' Astor Piazzolla, works out a style more personal with its orchestra and introduced certain elements of the traditional tango to modern orchestrations.

We must also notice a certain number of musicians among whom the pianists Osvaldo Manzi, Osvaldo Berlingieri and Colangelo, which worked in the orchestra of Anibal Troilo, as well as the bandoneonists Ernesto Baffa and Raul Garello. These musicians knew to give to their own formations, thereafter, the orchestral concept of Troilo, which worked until its death in 1975.

The bandoneonist Eduardo Rovira appears in the orchestra of Alfredo Gobbi and mixes the roots ' tangueras' with the traditional baroques, Bach or Haendel. He develops a single music in the contemporary Tango, and from this style will emerge the intérmédiaire generation, represented by Daniel Binelli, Juan Mosalini, Rodolfo Mederos, Julio Pane, Lisandro Adrover, Nestor Marconi and Domingo Moles.
