about

This piece was composed by legendary tango "guardia vieja" composer/violinist/director Francisco Canaro, who was active in Buenos Aires in the early 1900s. In the decades since its composition in the 1920s, it has become a tango standard and favorite of dancers and "orquestas." The version recorded here is based on a 1950s arrangement by another tango legend, Carlos di Sarli (known as "El Señor del tango"; the Gentleman of the tango), and is very representative of his late style, which contrasts extremely short and percussive bow strokes with dramatic, lush sonorities in the strings, and improvisatory ornamentation in the piano.
