In this tanda, Canaro’s orchestra recedes into the background as Charlo takes center stage. His unfailing intonation, polished technique and superlative musicianship put him in a special place in the history of tango vocalists. It is a shame that his voice is less often heard at the milongas than that of many lesser talents. The last two numbers also display his remarkable skills as a composer.

• Tiempos viejos (1937)
• Yo también soñé (1935)
• Viejas alegrías (1937)
• Tormento (1934)
