TANDA (TANGO)

A 'tanda' is a set of pieces of music, usually between three or five, that is played during a milonga (place). Most commonly the music is a tango, a milonga or a vals. Between two tandas a cortina (tango) might be played.
One way of arranging the music could be like the following:
#four tangos - cortina
#three milongas - cortina
#four tangos - cortina
#three vals - cortina
After these four tandas the scheme should be repeated.
Tandas can be arranged by orchestra, by lyrics, by time of recording, or by "feel" of the music. In a tanda of tangos it is common to play only the music of one orchestra. Sometimes also non-tango tandas are played, like Rock n roll, Cumbia or Chacarera.
