[Tango-L] Orquesta Color Tango with Vocalists

[Stephen.P.Brown@dal.frb.org]

Hi Everyone:

I have heard that the Orquesta Color Tango is now performing with several 
vocalists.  I have heard mixed opinion whether the orchestra's live 
playing with the vocalists is suitable for dancing.

The Color Tango CD Yunta Brava features vocalist Eduardo Espinoza on about 
half the tracks, and the vocal tracks on that CD seem to belong more to 
the concert era than the dance era.

Rather than concentrate on these recorded tracks, I am interested in an 
assessment from those who have heard Color Tango play for a milonga with a 
vocalist.

When they are playing live for a milonga, who is the vocalist performing 
with Color Tango?
How suitable is Orquesta Color Tango's live playing at milongas with a 
vocalist for social dancing? 
When they are playing live for a milonga with a vocalist, how much does 
Color Tango sound like vocal tracks on their Yunta Brava CD?

With best regards,
Steve
