Argentino Galván

Violinist – Arranger/Composer

Argentino Galván was born on July 13,
1913 to Elena Figueredo and Liborio
Galván. At the age of thirteen he studied
the violin and composed his first tango,
Mariposa. He studied with professor
María Luisa Reyes for five years. In
Chivilcoy he formed his first ensemble
with his brother Raul on bandoneón,
Piancino, Toto González, Osvaldo
Lance, Nicasio Unia, and Normando
Blanco. He accompanied singer Carlos
Claudel in Chivilcoy and 9 de Julio and
formed the duo Los Cebollitas with his
brother Oscar and Angel José Bianco.
In 1935 at the age of 21, he left for Buenos Aires with his violin to try to seek good
fortune.

In Buenos Aires he began his musical journey together with such illustrious names as
José Luis Padula, Alberto de Caro, and Florino Sassone. Galván was known as a brilliant
arranger. In 1937 he had his big break when he joined Miguel Caló’s orchestra as
violinist and arranger. He played with Héctor Stamponi on piano, Julio Ahumada,
Alberto San Miguel and Mario Núñez on bandoneón, José Paz and Carlos Aiello on
violin and Armando Caló on contrabass.

During the winter of 1938 they played in Mar del Plata, together with Harold Mickey’s
jazz band. This was when Galván began to write magnificent solos for violin that were
incorporated by Raúl Kaplún. With more illusions than money, Argentino Galván lived a
bohemian lifestyle sharing a boardinghouse, La Alegria, with Pontier, Rios, Ahumada,
Suárez Villanueva, Francini, Barbato, Parodi, Howard, and Titi Rossi. Galván began
specializing with chords and in 1941 was called upon by Elvino Vardaro to integrate
chords in the orchestrations for the first Argentine jazz group, the Brighton Jazz. José
Bragatto was on cello and Alberto del Bagno on violin. This was an ensemble of such
exceptional quality that they recorded a 78rpm record on April 1, 1941 in the “Odeón”
studios of Buenos Aires.

During this period, Galván also wrote instrumentations for the Central American
orchestra of Efraín Orozco and Eugenío Nóbile. He also arranged El Día De Tu
Ausencia for Osvaldo Fresedo, which was sung by Oscar Serpa. Then in 1944 when
Troilo split with Piazzolla, Galván began arranging for him. Some arrangements include,
Me Están Sobrando Las Penas; Marioneta; Naranjo En Flor, Tres Y Dos; Buen Amigo;
La Revancha; Romance de Barrio and Sur. Recuerdos De Bohemia was an interpretive

4

interpretive arrangement which lasted six minutes. It began with an intro by cello,
followed by a piano solo and a violin solo before the beginning of the theme. This was
very revolutionary for that era where the music was on hundred percent danceable.
During this time he also wrote arrangements for Francini-Pontier and directed orchestras
to accompany singers. Galván’s collaboration with Troilo had lasted five years when he
decided to conclude it to conduct orchestras with vocalists. He accompanied Horacio
Deval for LR1. On T.K. records he recorded twelve compotitions among which were
Esta Noche Estoy De Tangos and Cafetin. In 1957
he formed a group with Elvino Vardaro and
Enrique Mario Francini on violin; Jaime Gosis on
piano; Julio Ahumada on bandoneón; Mario Lalli
on viola; José Bragatto on cello and Rafael Del
Bagno on contrabass. They played on radio
Splendid and recorded three LPs on Music-Hall.
One of these recordings contain six tangos by
Cobián and six by De Caro; another with six
themes by Arolas and six by Bardi; and the balance
of seven titles by Aieta and seven by Delfino.

Argentine Galván died on November 8, 1960.

Musicality Bootcamp with Joaquin Amenabar
San Diego, CA July 28 & 29th

A leading exponent of the bandoneon, Joaquin
Amenabar is a strong advocate for the
instrument, not only as the musical heart and
soul of the tango orchestra, but also as a
concert instrument in its own right. He is one
of today's few living masters of the bandoneon
who is equally adept at playing baroque,
classical, romantic and contemporary music as
well as tango and folkloric music, for which
the instrument is better known.
Joaquin Amenabar studied bandoneon with Rodolfo Daluisio at the Manuel de Falla
Municipal Conservatory in Buenos Aires, where he today holds an assistant
professorship. Currently a professor of bandoneon at the School of Popular Music of
Avellaneda in Buenos Aires, Amenabar has performed an extensive and varied
repertoire in solo concerts. He has participated in numerous European festivals, including
those of Concarneau, Ruffec, Chalus, Soyaux and Confolens in France, and Tarcento and
Goritizia in Italy. During the 2000 season, he made his North American debut in the
opening night concert of Chicago's Ravinia Festival, an homage to J.S. Bach. His
performance was praised by the Chicago Sun-Times for a profound richness and depth.
As the only pupil to be taught by the noted German tuner Jorge Weckesser in
Argentina, Amenabar has achieved an unusual mastery of the instrument, including its
tuning and repair as well as performance. Dedicated to propagating an appreciation of the
bandoneon, he has given numerous seminars on its use for composers and
instrumentalists and taught courses on tango's musical form, history and evolution to both
dancers and tango aficionados. In addition to teaching master classes for performers, he
has made numerous transcriptions for the instrument in both solo and chamber music
settings. He has also devoted himself to promoting native Argentine music, but always
includes tango music in his concerts.
Equally respected as a performer, teacher, lecturer, instrument technician and tuner,
Amenabar is indeed a master of our time. He is also a gifted composer and arranger who
is currently engaged in reviving authentic tango performance practice by reconstructing
long-lost scores that were played by tango orchestras in the early 20th century and then
conducting his own orquesta típica in those works. The page Joaquín Amenábar y su
Orquesta Típica De La Guardia Vieja gives sound examples of his orchestra.

Migdalia Romero, author of Tango Lover’s Guide to Buenos Aires: Insights and
Recommendations has added a website -- www.tangoloversguide.com -- to accompany
her book. The website is an invaluable resource for tango lovers traveling to Buenos
Aires since it updates readers on changes in the tango scene that reflect the current
economy.

Most importantly, the website features a monthly calendar of tango events including
shows, concerts, films, plays, art and photography exhibits, special milongas, talks,
seminars, and exhibition dancing. The calendar lists tango offerings in venues such as
nightclubs, theaters, bars, cafes, museums, academies, government buildings, cultural
centers, milongas, and dance studios – many off the beaten path. Some are free and
others charge and/or require reservations. Entries are organized by week and day – in
chronological order. At the beginning of each month the calendar is revised and
throughout the month, listings are added as they become available.

More information on the venues appearing on the website, as well as on other tango
venues is found in the book, Tango Lover’s Guide to Buenos Aires. The book is
available through Amazon .com.

Colombia Tango & Milonga Festival

!!! THE FIRST INTERNATIONAL TANGO & MILONGA FESTIVAL
IN COLOMBIA!!! September 4 – 8, 2012

This has been an idea long time in the making and awaiting for a signal
from the Universe, now that I have it; finally we are working to make

this dream become a reality.

In Colombia the Tango has been cultivated for about 80 years as part of our musical
culture. It is a beautiful heritage that originally came to us from Argentina ;
thanks brothers and sisters!!!

In Colombia the level of Tango dancing is excellent, has extraordinary dancers
of international quality, the country has hosted and grown superb singers and musicians

as well as collectors, historians and researchers of this genre.

The Colombian Tangueros are very enthusiastic about the idea of organizing
a grand event and interacting with dancers other from countries.

We promise you, as the Festival organizers, to do all that is possible
to turn your visit into an unforgettable experience.

We look forward to your visit to Manizales , Colombia ,
a beautiful city and beautiful Tango country.

Taxi Dancers

After attending many Tango Festivals, for close to 20 years, it was evident
that gender balance was a problem.

Therefore, as part of our work we will have a select group of dancers,
men and women, experienced dancers. Their support function will be to achieve

gender balance in the classes as well as in the milongas.
Another group of the dancers will be a select professional tango dancer available for hire.

Please, provide us with information on your tango level and you requirements.
We will provide you with a list. If you have interest, please contact us,
the economic arrangements will be made directly between the parties.
