María de Buenos Aires

''María de Buenos Aires'' is a tango opera (''tango operita'') with music by Ástor Piazzolla〔SCP 2005.〕 and libretto by Horacio Ferrer〔Julio Nudler,(Horacio Ferrer ), Todo Tango. Accessed online, 20 March 2007.〕 which premiered at the Sala Planeta in Buenos Aires in May 1968.
The surreal plot centers on a prostitute in Buenos Aires, Argentina; the second half takes place after her death. The characters include María (and, after her death, the Shadow of María), a singer of payadas, various members of the Buenos Aires underworld, a poet narrator who is also a goblin-like duende, several marionettes under his control, and a circus of psychoanalysts. Several elements of the libretto suggest parallels between María and Mary, the mother of Jesus (in Spanish, ''María'') or to Jesus himself.〔
While certainly not in the narrow sense an opera ballet, because the dance is tango rather than classical ballet, it falls within the tradition of having set dance pieces integral to an operatic work.
The music draws on the ''nuevo tango'' idiom for which Piazzolla is famous.〔 The original idea for the story was conceived by Piazzolla's then lover, Egle Martin, who was married to Eduardo "Lalo" Palacios. The title role was originally conceived for Martin, but while Piazzolla was still composing the operita, he and Martin broke up after he asked her husband for her hand at Christmas in 1967. According to Martin, Piazzolla said to Lalo, "She is music, she can't belong to anybody, no she is music, she is music, and that's me." After their rift a replacement was desperately needed, but Piazzolla soon met folksinger Amelita Baltar at the Buenos Aires nightclub "Nuestro Tiempo", formerly called "676" and once Piazzolla's home base in Argentina. Baltar's identification with the character Maria paired with her beauty and captivating stage presence made her ideal.

The piece is written for at least three vocalists (one of whom, the narrator, speaks rather than singing).〔 For the orchestration Piazzolla augmented his current working quintet: Piazzolla (bandoneón), Antonio Agri (violin), Jamie "El Russo" Gosis (piano), Oscar Lopez Ruiz (guitar) and Kicho Díaz (double bass); with viola, cello, flute, percussion, vibraphone and xylophone, and another guitar. Maria de Buenos Aires has often been performed with dancers as well as the musicians. There are several extant arrangements, including Piazzola's own and one by Pablo Ziegler.〔
