History of Tango - Gardel Part 1- 2018

Our school https://corrientessocialclub.co.uk/tango-express/
proudly presents its new channel dedicated to learning of Tango, its culture, music, dance and related art practices.

Our first series on The History of Tango will be dedicated to the work and legacy of Carlos Gardel, the greatest icon of Argentine Tango:
"Gardel's legacy is intimately tied with the tango. For his tango singing, Gardel is still revered from Tokyo to Buenos Aires. A popular saying in Argentina, which serves as a testimony to his long-lived popularity, claims, "Gardel sings better every day.""

Charles Romuald Gardès was born in Toulouse, France on December 11, 1890. His mother moved to Buenos Aires in 1893.

This video is a short recount of Gardel's work with NBC. He traveled to the United States, to make a debut on the most important radio network in the world, the NBC of New York, on 31 December 1933.

In 1934 with Alfredo Le Pera's collaboration, in the scriptwriting, Gardel shot Cuesta abajo, Mi Buenos Aires querido and Tango en Broadway, for Paramount Pictures of New York.
