A big welcome to Buenos Aires for Gabriel and others today.
Today, we are going back to the "big 4" orchestras with a tango from Anibal Troilo. For a change, I am picking an instrumental tango tonight. "El Tamango" was recorded in 1941 and is typical of Troilo's early staccato style. He is also known for changing his musical style throughout his career. Like Pugliese and Piazzolla, Troilo was constantly innovating. Speaking of Piazzolla, Astor got his first big break with the orchestra of.... that's right, Troilo...
You can find this recording on the IStore by searching for "El Tamango". It's the first one at the top of the search results.
By the way, I am not receiving any sort of compensation for "plugging" the Apple IStore. I just think they have done a great job of beefing up their Argentine Tango collection over the last 3 or so years. I also buy quite a bit of my music from them.
Enjoy!
EL
