This DVD would not play. I tried two players, including one that is not region-restricted, and all it would do is make a spinning sound, but would not load or play. Since another customer had problems and has requested a replacement, I am giving this product a 1-star rating. While the content may be very good, as reported by others, I recommend not purchasing this DVD unless the Amazon description notes that production problems have been corrected.

I sent it back because it was scratched. I am sorry I had to do that because the material was really interesting. I will try to get another one next month. It was a very good documentary.

I was very disappointed with this DVD. It shows a concert from Buenos Aires with a large orchestra playing many of the old classic tangos. On one track a couple dances "ballet"-tango. The concert and the music is smooth and "very nice" - and that's my problem with the DVD. Although there are some fine performances by single musicians (one of them being the lead bandoneon player), in my opinion, overall it doesn't rise above the level of supermarket music. If you buy a DVD with a Piazzolla concert - played by the master himself - and listen to a minute of it, you'll get much more intensity, music, and feeling than on this entire DVD. I'm sorry for the bad review, generally I like to support the effort of musicians, but I feel I have wasted my money on this one. I didn't have any technical problems with the DVD.

Even though the quality of the music and the video itself is good, it was defective. It stops playing at the 10th track.
I liked it and for this reason I have requested a replacement.Tango Argentina [DVD Video]

This DVD is really amazing. It was filmed in Buenos Aires on December 31, 2006. A wonderful combination of the classical with the old and the modern. I fully recommend this title to anyone who loves good music.
