Linear Vocabulary - Using Dice to Put Together a Combo

This is a concept we really want our students to understand in a very internal way. But it is a surprisingly difficult one. Tests have shown that too many choices or too much freedom actually hinders decision making.

Caló carried out and developed a style that connects traditional tango with the innovations of the age, without stridence, with a highlighted presence of the violins, a rhythmic bandoneon section and a spectacular piano.
