Aubade: Lecon de Tango is a compilation of Tango music. Aubade,from what I gather is a French lingerie brand and they decided to create a selection of tango songs for those who appreciate this type of music.

There are a total of 16 songs on the disc. There are songs that are more traditional, where as others are electronic mixes, which are more recent but still sound quite beautiful with the accordian.

Tango is a very sensual dance, very passionate. This music is an ode to that type of dance. It is very sultry and seductive. It sets the mood quite nicely. If you are not sure if this CD is for you then you should listen to tango music online first to see if you like this type of music before you order this.

The sound is very good. All the songs have their unique style. Some are more instrumental some are more focused on the accordian as the main instrument while others are the type you would hear in a bar, like the electronic mixes.

Although some songs are different in tone the songs follow smoothly in their order. Some have a quicker tempo and are followed by a slightly slower song. It keeps you guessing.

The songs are all set at an equal volume, so although some might have higher pitched instruments, you won't have to worry about looking for the remote to put the volume down. The volume never gets annoying.

The design is very tasteful. The photography is done by Pedro Lombardi and the lingerie featured in the art is from Aubade. You don't see the faces of the models which is fine. The picture on the back of the case shows how much they went out of their way not to show the lady's face which I find sort of ruins the figure but thats just my opinion, it doesn't detract from the CD at all.

It's simple, elegent but not discreet. If you were to leave this out someone could assume that this CD is a mood setter for sex.

The insert that contains the names of the songs can actually be opened up and set out to be a poster. It is very lovely but I prefer leaving it in it's case.
