Alpine Abrazo 2012 will be an international tangomarathon taking place in Mallnitz, a small village situated in an high altitute health resort in the High Tauern National Park. (in the Alps, South of Austria)

Second big topic of this newsletter is dealing with three large CD shippings from CTA including the three exciting new releases, almost all available A.M.P. CDs as well as all tango related CDs by the label Sondor. (Villasboas, Racciatti, Cambereri, CD "El tango de los 40" containing "Mi vieja linda")

Our Audio-/Video presentations for this month are featuring recordings taken from the brand new CTA-releases! An unknown Canaro tango and a very known OTV milonga in outstanding quality!

CD News of Club Tango Argentino (CTA), AMP & Sondor

Just some days ago I received 3 large shipments from CTA, AMP & Sondor at the very same day, so I want to inform you about all three of them in one go as well. As a teaser: The 3 new CTA releases are in stock, as well as almost all available CTA and AMP-CDs! And finally I was able to obtain all tango related Sondor releases (CDs of Miguel Villasboas, Donato Racciatti, Juan Cambereri and "El tango de los 40" containing "Mi vieja linda") which I have in stock from now on as well. At the end of this article you find a list of all available CDs of those labels.

The three new exciting CTA releases which are available for 45,- EUR from now on:

* This track has no melodic similarities with "Tu diagnóstico" (J. L. Betinotti) as known by interprets like Troilo/Fiorentino, Attadía/Beiro or Ciriaco Ortiz. It is the same recording (in way better quality) which can be found on CD Orquesta Típica Victor Vol. 18 (1936-1937) - CdT as "Oid el vals" (E. Cartos) which is not part of relevant OTV discographies.

** The orchestra accompaning Yoshie Fujiwara most likely is not the regular Orquesta Típica Victor, but musicians of the music label Victor. These recordings are not listed in relevant OTV discographies. Details about these recording are unclear.
