Tango.info musical work

Overview

A tango.info musical work, sometimes just called work, consists of a composition and optionally lyrics.

On most track pages a base work is given, which is the work believed to be

• the work for the track, or
• the earliest work in a chain of derivations ending with the work for the track

Since tango.info does not know how to determine for all tracks whether a difference in audio between two performances constitutes a new work, derived works are currently not listed in the database.

Notes

• Using "musical work" - That still fails to exclude performance... and arguably fails to include lyrics.
