For the first week of June 2019 - we picked a video - a lovely Tango uploaded by Dr. 240252 on May 27 - 2019 titled "Orchestra Dobri - Der letzte Tango des Rudolph Valentino - 1928". It was composed by a lesser known Tango composer - Jan Volkov - with the super good instrumental arrangement by a German orchestra called "Orchestra Dobri".
Tango became popular in 1920's in many European countries since it drastically changed from its original, raw version born in seedy, port nightclubs of Buenos Aires, Argentina - at the end of eighteen century. Many European composers, arrangers, dancers and vocalists came up with beautiful Tangos - totally on par with those composed by the original Argentinian Tango masters.
Dr. 240252 effective used visuals of Rudolph Valentino - a handsome Italian American movie idol - a great Tango dancer - famous in 1920's. He - unfortunately - died tragically in 1931 - in his early thirties - at the New York hospital - due to the complications following his appendix surgery. His funeral procession attracted millions of his fans - especially - the ladies. It shut down all the New York traffic for a long time.
In any event - all of us will have a very good first week of June 2019 which continues cool but wet in my hilly Pittsburgh. As every week - we thank you for clicking our YouTube channel tango3721 and we shall meet again - a week from today - same channel - same time - same place!
