CARLOS GARDEL (1890 - 1935)
Carlos Gardel was born in 1887 and became
internationally identified with the tango, which he made
fashionable abroad in the 1920s. He created in it more
than a dance but a synthesis of cultural significance,
while himself providing an example of success that
suggested similar ambitions to many others from a
similarly impoverished background. He was equally
famous for his appearances in films. Two of his best known compositions are
El da que me quieras (The day you love me) and Volver
(Coming back). Gardel died in 1935
