Overview

A tanda is a set of pieces of music, usually between three or five, that is played during a milonga. Most common the music is a tango, a milonga or a vals. Between two tandas a cortina might be played.

One way of arranging the music could be like the following:

  1. four tangos - cortina
  2. three milongas - cortina
  3. four tangos - cortina
  4. three vals - cortina

This could be notated as T4-M3-T4-V3.

Tandas can be arranged by orchestra, by lyrics, by time of recording, by "feel" of the music. In a tanda of tango it is common to play only music of one orchestra.

Sometimes also non-tango tandas are played, like Rock n roll, Cumbia, Chacarera.
