“El bulín de la calle Ayacucho” by Anibal Troilo y su Orquesta Típica with Francisco Fiorentino in vocals, 1941.
Bandoneonist, leader and composer (18 March 1900 – 6 June 1969)
The lyrics of “El bulín de la calle Ayacucho” belong to Celedonio Flores and the music to the brothers José and Luis Servidio.
It has been a number with a wide popular acclaim.
The brothers used to sign together without caring whose part was more important.
So there were numbers entirely composed by Luis and other ones by José.
But when José was asked about “El bulín de la calle Ayacucho” he said it entirely belonged to him.
In 1923, Celedonio sent the lyrics of this new tango to José Servidio.

During Di Sarli’s sextet years, 1928-31, his sound still fit with the slow marching beat that was popular at the time among orchestras like Francisco Canaro’s and Osvaldo Fresedo’s (Di Sarli’s personal inspiration).
However he was beginning to carve out his personal signature of a unified orchestral sound, lush melody, and soft understated rhythm.
The physical presence of our partner, here and now, is an invitation that can either be accepted or refused, but is hard to postpone.
Love is to demand improvement from each other.
Let’s do what we consider to be the best, in every moment, and do it in the most efficient way.
Let’s free ourselves from the actitudes which enclosed our bodies in a shell of prejudice, conformity and cowardice, a shell which made our body redundant.
Own it, care for it, use it, dance with it.
If we are not our body, it is at least a part of our world which remains present to us at all times.
Contemplate the continuity with ourselves, our body and the world with the other people in it.
Let’s be inspired to be productive, selecting creativity rather than inertia or anger.
Words are an indispensable tool to determine our relationships to objects, both in the case of our interactions with things and in the interactions between people in relation to things (for instance: our belongings).
However, regarding interpersonal relationships, the objective word may be useless.
Challenge, creativity and embrace make most words superfluous.
The title of this tango always arouses curiosity, adding to the beauty of listening to it as the incredible creation that Carlos Di Sarli made of it, recording it on April 18, 1941.
This composition belongs to Martín Lasala Álvarez, an Uruguayan doctor who was a functionary of the Uruguayan state for most of his life, working for the Foreign Service of Uruguay in Paris.
The word “estagiario” does not exist either in the Lunfardo or in the popular jargon of the Oriental people (the people of República Oriental del Uruguay). Instead, it is an adaptation of Lasala himself – from the French “stagiare”, the practitioner or advanced medical student who collaborates in the Hospital’s practices.
Martín Lasala, who completed studies in Paris, was also a piano performer. But, to mitigate nostalgia or to animate meetings, as a good Rio Platense, he gave free rein to his passion, playing and composing tangos.
Carlos Di Sarli was the one who captured and recorded the richness of this tango.
