About This Course

The main goal of this course is to provide you with the necessary tools to improve your guitar skills and understanding of tango music. We have designed an efficient and dynamic method that allows you to do it at your own pace, with a well-planned syllabus, video classes on-demand, a downloadable e-book to accompany each lesson, music scores and much more. 

We love tango and we love teaching, that’s why we are so detailed (and so good) at what we do!

What will you be able to do by completing all the lessons in this course?
If you complete all the lessons, take advantage of the complementary material and practise enough, at the end of this course you will be able to play tango loosely and fluently, arrange your music and create a solid repertoire. Cool! Right?

Songs covered in this course:

  • Como Dos Extraños
  • Los Mareados
  • Por Una Cabeza
  • La Última Curda
  • Yuyo Verde
  • Malevaje
  • Naranjo en Flor

Learning Objectives

To understand complex parameters of tango music, such as alternative rhythmic possibilities, main chord progressions, melodic variations, and more.

To accompany singers or melodic instruments with greater ease and freedom, combining rhythms, ornaments, cadences, walking basses, among other things.
To enrich your harmonic language, using inversions of the chords, dominant chord replacements and more.
To create your own ‘variaciones’ for the end of the song, as the orchestras do.
