Tango y turf (Leguisamo solo, Bajo Belgrano, Domingo, Uno y uno, Palermo) is an instrumental Tango composed by .
The title “Tango y turf (Leguisamo solo, Bajo Belgrano, Domingo, Uno y uno, Palermo)” suggests a rich tapestry of themes. “Tango y turf” links the dance of tango with horse racing (“turf”), weaving a narrative that evokes the excitement and drama associated with these two vibrant aspects of Argentine culture. “Leguisamo solo” points to Irineo Leguisamo, a famous jockey, suggesting a moment of singular brilliance or a solo performance that captivates the audience. “Bajo Belgrano” references a neighborhood in Buenos Aires, while “Domingo” (Sunday) suggests a time of leisure, often associated with social gatherings, recreational events, and perhaps a day at the races. “Uno y uno” and “Palermo,” likely reference the equality and balance in competition (“uno y uno”), and Palermo, a district known for its racecourse and cultural events. This instrumental piece might capture the spirit of these themes through its rhythm and melody, expressing the pulse of city life, the thrill of competition, and the intimate dance of the tango.
Alfredo De Angelis was known for his skill in arranging and performing tango music, making his orchestra an ideal vessel for such a composition. In this piece, De Angelis likely infuses the music with his characteristic style, weaving together a danceable rhythm with intricate melodic lines. The music might progress through lively passages, evoking the hustle of race day or the anticipation in the air, with dynamic shifts representing the ebb and flow of a horse race or a tango dance. His orchestra can draw upon the traditional elements of tango to evoke a sense of place and culture, while also experimenting with tempo and dynamics to reflect the unique blend of elements suggested by the composition’s title. Through his interpretation, “Tango y turf” becomes more than music—it’s a narrative rooted in Argentinean tradition, brought to life through the distinctive sound of De Angelis’ orchestrations.
