Being a tango musician wasn’t just hard work and fierce competition: sometimes, you also got to serve some booze or keep the ladies happy. There were also some who knew how to care for their inner child, like the three mischievous directors who are seen sliding down the stairs below. ”O tempora…o mores”, like Cicero once said. In any case, this is quite the different sight from the more usual posed, sometimes haughty portraits you’d see of key people in tango history.

Tango Archive
The idea of this website is to give access to (still undiscovered) photos of tango orchestras and singers found in old archive material.
Photographic material of tango music celebrities on the internet is still very scarce and we are working hard to change that.
We collaborate with Tango Time Machine at Tangodecoder.com to make more original material accessible.
Thank you for everything, Michael
