Notes
A Milonga is a lyrical minstrel song-songs with lyrics that tells stories about real or imaginary historical events. Contrapunto or counterpoint means music in the form of a musicial duel (question & answer). Over time, dance steps and other musical influences were added to the Milonga, eventually giving rise to the Tango. Jorge Cardoso wrote many guitar duets for various instruments. Milonga (uruguay) is a duet for the piano and guitar. Set at a lively 2/4 tempo, often including syncopated musical improvisation.
