Our YT Vid of the Wk. Choice for the 2nd Wk of Apr.2017 - "Polish Tango (Zlota Panthera) - Golden Panther - Gold and Petersburski's Orchestra - 1929."

       For the second week of Apr. 2017 - we chose a video uploaded by Dr.240252 on Apr.3-2017 titled "Polish Tango - Golden Panther - (Zlota Pantera)-Gold and Petersbursky's Orchestra - 1929." The music composed by Jakub Kagan - a well-known Warsaw composer with the lyrics by a famous lyricist/producer - Andrzej Wlast.
           Dr.240252 gives you an English translation of the turbulent verses. In contrast - the music of this Tango sounds beautiful, soft and enchanting - in contrast with of the brutal lyrics. Love can be harsh and unforgiving - at times.
     Andrzej Wlast - the author of many numerous lyrics to various musical pieces built a huge following of fans due to his other activities as a producer of many Warsaw's - entertainment vehicles in thriving Warsaw circa 1929 through 1939. 

      As a powerful, talented and famous celebrity of his day - he also "accumulated" a big number of jealous detractors who hated his work since they couldn't come up to his level of mastery.

      At the end of the day - however - his legacy continues to grow - while the detractors - disappeared - rather soon - following their "efforts".            

      Moreover - the numbers of his fans who become familiar with his work due to YouTube - keep growing every day. His temporary enemies - on the other hand - disappeared for good - a short time after their brief opportunity to take a "cheap pot shot" at the famous, talented celebrity.
     At any rate - have a good week - everybody! Enjoy the coming spring! We meet here - a week from today!
