Song
Qué polvo con tanto viento
"Qué polvo con tanto viento" is a tango composition that sources date to 1890 [1][2][3]. Its authorship is disputed: some sources link it to Pedro Quijano [1][3], while another treats it as anonymous [2].
"Qué polvo con tanto viento" is a composition from the early period of tango, and the available sources date it to the year 1890 [1][2][3]. No more precise date than the year is given [1][2][3].
The sources disagree on who wrote it. Two sources associate the piece with Pedro Quijano [1][3]. A third presents it as an anonymous work [2]. Both versions place the work in 1890 [1][2][3], and this article reports both without favouring either.

History
The sources record the composition in 1890 [1][2][3]. Two sources connect the work and that date with Pedro Quijano [1][3]. A third source records the same year but gives the work as anonymous [2].
The authorship question is therefore unresolved in the available material [1][2][3]. The sources that name Quijano are a historical article on the tango "Don Juan" [1] and a Spanish-language list of early tango titles [3]. The source that gives the piece as anonymous is a general article on tango music [2].
