"Charamusca" by Francisco Canaro y su Orquesta Típica, 1934.

Francisco Canaro

Musician, violinist, leader and composer. (November 26, 1888 - December 14, 1964)

His life parallels Tango's history: starting in the poorest neighborhoods of Buenos Aires, moving up the social ladder, and eventually achieving worldwide recognition.

His passion for music began in his childhood.

He decided that he wanted the music to be his profession, formed a trio, and went to play in a brothel in the town of “Ranchos”, eighty miles south of Buenos Aires, in 1906.

Canaro helped Tango to find its way to complete acceptance by all the sectors of Buenos Aires society, being the first Tango musician to play at the private parties celebrated in the houses of some of the most prominent upper-class families of Buenos Aires.

As a composer, from his first tangos, we like to share "Charamusca".

Marvil

Lyricist and composer (November 24, 1902 - May 8, 1976)

Marvil, a highly esteemed lyricist, left an indelible mark on the world of Tango, and his lyrical creations resonate across the lively atmospheres of milongas.

Embarking on his journey into tango lyricism in the mid-thirties, Marvil dedicated two fruitful decades to crafting evocative verses. From the outset, he achieved remarkable success, his compositions striking a chord with audiences.

Collaborating with numerous musicians, Marvil skillfully melded his words with captivating melodies.

A multitude of renowned voices lent their talent to bring his tangos to life.

A true maestro of Tango, Marvil adeptly captured the essence of his era. Infusing his work with a blend of humor and sensitivity, he painted a nostalgic portrait of his youth using watercolors that exuded tenderness and bore the distinctive mark of the forties.
