Agustín Bardi, Argentine Tango musician and composer.

Agustín Bardi

Violinist, pianist and composer (13 August 1884 – 21 April 1941)

Agustín Bardi has very deservedly received the title of “composer of musicians.”

The excellent quality of his works always had the recognized admiration of all professional musicians without exception.

The musical elaboration of his tangos allows the showcasing of the Orquestas Típicas in any of its interpretative modalities.

Bardi’s tangos were not written to be played in the manner of primitive ensembles, without harmonic concerns or aesthetic interest in achieving greater musical enhancement.

Jorge Vidal, Argentine Tango singer.

Jorge Vidal

Singer and composer (12 August 1924 – 14 September 2010)

“From an early age I had a clear position towards life, concerning social and political matters. And I was very lucky, God was always on my side. There were many bitter times, characteristic of the humans, but I was putting them in a corner.”

“Man should always have the interest to continue ahead and to keep on fighting. When he loses his capacity of astonishment, when there is nothing that may draw his attention, when he no longer has an interest that allows him to keep on living with enthusiasm and he doesn’t have strength to improve, well, he’d better kill yourself.”

“With Pugliese I learned, among so many things, to have respect for rhythm. I was very successful alongside him”.
