Tango in 1970
In 1970 Argentine tango saw new recording formats, including what one source calls the first live album recorded in Argentina, *Piazzolla en el Regina* [1]. Established orchestras such as those of Juan D'Arienzo, Aníbal Troilo and Florindo Sassone held dated recording sessions that year [8]. Tango also travelled abroad: Horacio Salgán played at Lincoln Center in New York [4], and the Min-On Concert Association began inviting Argentine tango artists to Japan every year [13].
The dossier documents 1970 mainly through recordings and through the biographies of individual musicians and singers. A discography listing gives dated or year-only recordings by many orchestras and singers. They range from the dance orchestras of Juan D'Arienzo and Aníbal Troilo to folk-oriented performers such as Enzo Valentino and Atahualpa Yupanqui [8].
A biography of Astor Piazzolla links two firsts for the Argentine record market to him: the double-album soundtrack of *María de Buenos Aires* in 1968, and the live album *Piazzolla en el Regina* in 1970 [1]. The same source describes the live album as a major gamble for RCA [1].
Other sources record activity outside the studio. Horacio Salgán performed at Lincoln Center in New York in 1970 [4]. Luis Stazo organized and conducted a large orchestra at the Luna Park for an institution's third anniversary [12]. In Japan, the Min-On Concert Association began its annual invitations of Argentine tango orchestras, dancers and singers [13].
The dates below come from discography and biographical listings. They are recording or release dates, not composition or premiere dates. For each work they show at most a recording known from that year [8].
History
A biography of Astor Piazzolla notes that by 1970 progressive rock had begun to appear in Buenos Aires [1]. The source describes this rock as built on added sections rather than on thematic development, and it mentions a series of concerts facilitated by the municipal government [1].
The same biography states that in the 1970s, given the chaotic political situation in Argentina, Piazzolla was looking for a record contract in Europe [1]. In March 1974 the producer Aldo Pagani telephoned him with an offer: Pagani would become his representative, under a contract valid for three years [1].
Horacio Salgán played at Lincoln Center in New York in 1970 and at the Teatro Colón in Buenos Aires in 1972 [4].
In 1970 Luis Stazo organized and conducted the large orchestra that performed at the Luna Park to celebrate the third anniversary of an institution. The excerpt does not name the institution [12].
From 1970 the Min-On Concert Association invited Argentine tango orchestras, dancers and singers to Japan every year [13].
Susana Rinaldi's biography places some of her activity in the early and mid-1970s. In 1971 she and her husband, Osvaldo Piro, opened a café-concert called Magoya in Mar del Plata [7]. The source says it became a meeting point for many local and international artists [7]. Rinaldi travelled there with her family from November to April each season and during the July and August winter holidays [7]. By the mid-1970s Piro had taken over running the venue [7]. Also around the mid-1970s, she took part in a UNESCO concert at the invitation of Yehudi Menuhin, named in the source as president of the Asociación Internacional de Música [7].
A biography of Roberto Goyeneche includes a personal recollection of nights out as a university student "around 1970" [9].
Albums and singles
Biographical discographies date several long-playing records and singles to 1970 [1] [2] [4] [6]:
- *Piazzolla en el Regina*, a live album issued by RCA and described as the first live album recorded in Argentina [1]
- An official Columbia single with a festival version sung by Amelita Baltar, with *Chiquilín de Bachín* on the B side, released in early 1970 [1] - *Los ladrones*, an LP by Cuarteto Cedrón (Mandolina AL101) [2] - *Entre tango y tango*, Edmundo Rivero with the orchestra of Horacio Salgán; Salgán's discography lists it as *Entre Tango y Tango*, with Edmundo Rivero (Philips, 1970) [3] [4] - *Dos virtuosos del piano*, Horacio Salgán with Dante Amicarelli (Philips, 1970) [4] - *Mano a mano*, Roberto Goyeneche with the Orquesta Típica Porteña, directed and arranged by Raúl Garello and Osvaldo Berlingieri (RCA) [6]
Edmundo Rivero's discography also lists two 1970 recordings with the orchestra of Mario De Marco: *Callejón* and *Arigató Japón, arigató* [3].
A biography of Susana Rinaldi states that in 1970 she devoted a whole long-playing record to tangos with lyrics by a single author [10]. The available excerpt is cut off before the lyricist's name [10].
The Mariano Mores entry lists *Un elefante color ilusión* (1970) [5]. It also lists *Luces de mi ciudad*, dated to the 1970s and 1980s, with a collaborator whose name is truncated to "J." [5]. Goyeneche's biography notes that in the 1970s he continued his solo work with the same orchestras that had usually accompanied him in earlier years [6].

Repertoire
Several works appear more than once among the 1970 entries of the discography listing [8]: - *La cumparsita*: Florindo Sassone with Oscar Macri, Horacio Malvicino, José Canet with Nelly Omar, and José Basso [8] - *Caminito*: José Basso and Enzo Valentino [8] - *Chiqué*: Donato Racciatti and José Basso [8] - *Inspiración*: Armando Pontier and José Basso [8] - *Porteñísimo*: Juan D'Arienzo (13 August) and Alfredo De Angelis (27 November) [8] - *Adiós a Gabino Ezeiza*: José Canet with Nelly Omar, and Enzo Valentino [8] - *El llorón*: Florindo Sassone and José Basso [8]
Under the same work code, the listing labels *El llorón* a milonga for Sassone's recording and a tango for Basso's, so the listing's own entries differ on its genre [8]. Recording dates here do not establish when any work was composed or first performed; they give only the earliest known recording within this listing for that year [8].
