Biography

  Cantores de Típica's biography

In the forties, tango experienced a unique dynamism: the balance between the singer’s performance and the role of the conductor. It was a society where the artistic credits were distributed in equal parts. Singers were musically reassured by the ideas of the conductor, and thus were an equally important member of the orchestra and achieved great success, while the audience welcomed this harmonious match. The show Cantores de Típica recreates that historical moment through the singable repertoire from those days, which has been specially transcribed for the festival. The figures of the show are Alberto Podestá, Juan Carlos Godoy, Rubén Cané, Osvaldo Ribó and Lalo Martel, who will be recreating their hits with the orchestras of Miguel Caló, Pedro Laurenz, Alfredo De Angelis, Ricardo Tanturi and Angel D’Agostino. This time with a ten-musician orchestra, the audience will have once again have the opportunity to listen live to Percal, by Podestá; Papel Picado, by Ribó; Muchacho, by Cané; and Godoy and Martel will be recalling their greatest hits with De Angelis. Gabriel Soria, the author of the idea together with Cecilia Orrillo, will be hosting the show.
