La catrera is an instrumental Tango composed by Arturo De Bassi.
“La catrera” translates to “The Cot” in English, evoking the basic resting place associated with modesty and simplicity. As an instrumental tango, its melodies and rhythms might seek to paint a vivid picture of humble beginnings or the stark contrast between luxury and austerity. The piece can be imagined as a vibrant and lively composition that captures the spirit of resilience and determination associated with overcoming struggles and seizing opportunities, depicted through its fervent and dynamic orchestral arrangement.
Juan D’Arienzo, known for his energetic and rhythmic style, captures the essence of “La catrera” through his precision and vibrant orchestration. With his orchestra, the piece might be filled with a sense of buoyant and celebratory intensity, transforming its simple name into a complex and rich musical narrative. D’Arienzo’s performance could highlight the contrasts between the quiet, reflective sections of the composition and its more exuberant, spirited parts, underscoring his renowned nickname, “El Rey del Compás,” or “The King of Rhythm.”
