“De levita y con bastón” translates to “In frock coat and with a cane” in English. This title evokes an image of elegance and poise, possibly reflecting a bygone era where such attire was emblematic of sophistication and status. The instrumental piece likely carries this essence, with a composition that captures the fluid grace of a figure dressed in formal attire, moving with dignity and command. The tango might shift gracefully from one passage to another, with the musicians mimicking the rhythm of a leisurely walk supported by a stately cane, each note carefully selected to preserve the refined air suggested by its title.
