La viruta is an instrumental Tango composed by Vicente Greco.
The term “La viruta” translates to “The Wood Shavings” in English, suggesting imagery of carving, crafting, and transformation. As an instrumental tango, “La viruta” could evoke the delicate yet dynamic process of shaping and refining, much like crafting a piece of art from raw material. The music could start with a calm, gentle introduction, resembling the initial touches on the wood. As the orchestra delves deeper, the rhythm intensifies, reflecting the vigor and passion of an artist deeply engrossed in their work. The crescendo could bring an exhilarating sense of completion and reveal the intricate patterns formed—akin to the sweeping flourish of shavings falling gracefully to the ground.
Juan D’Arienzo, known as the “King of the Beat,” brings his characteristic vibrant energy and precise orchestration to “La viruta.” With his orchestra, D’Arienzo infuses the piece with a lively tempo and rhythmic clarity that compel listeners to feel the spirit of the dance floor. His version of “La viruta” exemplifies how the orchestra’s agility and precision carve out the melodic arcs akin to a craftsman’s elaborate work, giving this tango a pulsating life that resonates with both dancers and audiences alike.
