New CD:
Francisco Pancho Navarro - Sweet Guitar
Navarro is familiar to the tangueros for his lovely danceable recordings with
Tito Castro. However... Playing his native Argentine tangos is not the only
genre where the virtuosity of Navarro shines. This is his first solo album.
Listen to the interview with the artist.

The picks
Si Sos Brujos
The award-winning documentary about the preservation of the secrets of old Argentine tango orchestras.
Interview with Caroline Neal,
the documentary director
Tango Singer
by Tomas Eloy Martinez The fascinating tour through
the history of Argentina, Buenos Aires and, of course, Argentine tango.
My pick: Pizza, Beer & Smokes
No tango in this movie, but plenty of Buenos Aires reality of
the early 2000s, as experienced by the group of teens.
The economic collapse in Argentina effected many, especially the teenagers who lacked
the skills to get "real jobs". My teenage daughter and I watched this gritty, sad movie
quite a few times.
Best shows & music.
