You are purchasing high quality sheet music PDF files suitable for printing or viewing on digital devices.The Tango is the fourth and final interlude dance which occurs between the 4th and 5th movements of "La Guerra de Espa�a," a tone poem for piano. My plan is to eventually score it as a ballet with dialogue.
Point in the story:
The Battle of Las Navas de Tolosa proved a decisive victory for the Christian forces of Castile, Navarre, Portugal, and Aragon. A Castilian soldier, having abandoned his military duties to consummate his romantic relationship with a captured Moorish princess, realizes the severity of his treason and the likelihood that both he and the princess will be captured and executed. The two lovers dance one final, sensual tango before fleeing north.
