Search - Viviana Guzman and Anibal Corniglio :: Argentine Music

Acoustic duo comprised of Viviana Guzman, flute and Anibal Corniglio, guitar playing original and classic music from Argentina. The Tango was born more than 100 years ago in Buenos Aires in the impoverished neighborhoods of newly arrived immigrant population. Within the merging, and clashing of cultures the embrace of tango became the bridge across which the human spirit could travel. Influenced by the percussive rhythms of Candombe, tapered by the Cuban habanera and expanded in melody by European instrumentation, Tango evolved as the new language of the underworld. It enabled people to cross the economic and social boundaries of their divided society.
