Historic Video: Juan D´Arienzo Orchestra "LCCA" - Argentinaby Harley Jones |
Juan D´Arienzo Orchestra "LCCA" performing Tango Argentin À Orléans. Juan d'Arienzo (1900 – 1976) was an Argentine tango musician, also known as "El Rey del Compás" (King of the Beat). He was son of Italian immigrants and used more modern arrangements and instrumentation; his popular group produced hundreds of recordings. His music is played often at milongas in Buenos Aires, and the instrumentals are the classic harder rhythmic tangos with a strong staccato dance rhythm. He also recorded many great milongas and fast valses. His recordings were accompanied by singers such as Alberto Echagüe, Armando Laborde, and Héctor Maure, among others. |
