The second piece of this volume, Verano porteno or Summer in Buenos Aires , was the first of Piazzolla s timeless Las cuatro estaciones (The Four Buenos Aires Seasons) collection and was originally written for a 1965 stage play. The third and final installment in this collection is Tangata. This piece was composed in 1965 and is dedicated to the Argentine choreographer Oscar Araiz.
