pinion, as a countepart of grave voices, a kind of
duetto of opera, where the high notes played by the bandoneon are sopranos or
tenor voices, and the grave notes contralto or bass voices.
everything is possible :)

As in other languages, song lyrics and poetry in Spanish are always not
literally translatable. "Quejas" could mean several things, including laments,
as in "The Bandoneon's Lament." That is one way it has been translated.

Was wondering if anyone has an idea about meaning behind the tango tune
entitled Quejas de Bandoneon. It literally means Bandoneon's Complaints.
Perhaps "the wail of the Bandoneon?"
Wail means to cry softly or make a sad sound -- I've heard wail used in a
different sense, too, meaning to improvise
