Abstract

In the present work the instrumental tango in Colombia and its processes of adaptation
and composition are characterized through the experience of the Quinteto Leopoldo
Federico from Bogotá and F-31 Quinteto from Medellín. In the first part of the
article, the musical trajectory of the quintets is reviewed and the presence of tango in
Colombia is outlined having in mind the globalization of the genre. In the second
part, 3 pieces composed by the groups are analyzed under the relationship between
the River Plate tango and the Colombian national music.
