Interpretation of El Pollito

“El Pollito” translates to “The Little Chick” in English. The title evokes imagery of a small, lively, and playful chick, perhaps bustling around with an air of light-hearted mischief. In the instrumental piece, one might expect to hear the rhythm reflect these characteristics, with buoyant melodies and sharp, staccato accents that embody the agile movements of a little chick. The music might alternate between quick, lively passages and softer, more introspective moments, symbolizing the curious nature of the small creature exploring its world.

D’Arienzo’s orchestra masterfully combines the traditional elements of tango with an infectious sense of rhythm, making “El Pollito” a lively dance piece full of spontaneous energy and playful enthusiasm.
