Support the first Bandoneón Scholarship Fund and more....

We're proud to announce a fund raising partnership with Ko-Arts, a non-profit community arts organization, to raise capital to support TangoJam's mission to make tango music and educational resources available musicians worldwide, and this year to create the Bandoneon Scholarship Fund. As an important part of this agreement Ko-Arts will be accepting Tax-Deductible donations on TangoJam's behalf.

The Bandoneon Scholarship Fund will provide the opportunity to study bandoneon with a professional Bandoneonista (in person or by video conference) to a promising student who would not otherwise be able to afford lessons. The details and application process will be announced once the capitol is raised and the funding campaign has ended. The award will be given to the student selected from applications by review board of tango musicians.

In addition we are raising funding for:

• Transcription and engraving hours for work towards TangoJam's mission to creating a free and comprehensive online tango real book with all recorded traditional tangos.
• Programming and Data Entry hours for complete discographies of major tango orchestras prior to 1955.
• Expansion of the Bandoneon Solo Archive by acquisition and digitization of bandonón solo arrangements.  (available in the downloads section)
• Creation and distribution of new resources for learning to play tango on the violin, bass, piano, guitar, and bandoneón.  (some available in the downloads section)
• The creation of a searchable, editable, tango lyrics wiki preloaded with at least 500 tangos.
• And eventually full orchestral transcriptions of classic tangos.

We are also looking for volunteers, especially with the following skills:

• Entering and formatting music in Sibelus
• Media Wiki administration
• Php Programming
• Joomla component creation

Please support the Bandoneon Scholarship Fund and TangoJams mission by making a tax deductible donation through the TangoJam.com website today. We appreciate your support.

Welcome to the Tango Jam Website. The Tango Jam was born and is being raised by musician/dancer/teacher Ben Bogart who is currently living, studying, and making tango resources available from Buenos Aires, Argentina

The Tango Jam concept has grown, and while tangojams are still an important part of exposing musicians to tango, other resources are being developed as well.  There is a growing store for musicians and tango enthusiasts.  Secretly we are working discographies, transcription projects, funding for tango sudy, and promotional resources for Tango Bands!
