Ep 111 - Anselmo Aieta (placeholder)

Behind every iconic tango melody is a person with a story, and Tango Profiles is dedicated to uncovering those lives. Hosted and produced by Adam Tully from Buenos Aires, this podcast goes deep into the biographies of the genre's most essential composers. It's more than a music history lesson; it's an attempt to understand the individuals whose creativity defined a cultural movement, giving dimension to the names behind the classics we know. Originally crafted as audio essays for "The Death of Tango" on WPRB Princeton, these narratives found a permanent home as a podcast starting in 2017. Each episode of this audio series is a carefully researched portrait, blending personal history, cultural context, and of course, the music itself. You'll hear how specific lives, with their unique struggles and triumphs, directly shaped the sound and soul of tango. For anyone curious about the roots of the music or the vibrant society that produced it, this podcast offers a rich, intimate gateway. Tune in to Tango Profiles for a journey into the heart of a genre, told through the compelling stories of the people who built it.
