Book description
Cuando el 25 de junio de 1935 se estrella en Medellín el avión en que viajaba Carlos Gardel, la noticia conmueve al mundo. A la difusión masiva de sus discos, se había sumado desde 1931 la gran repercusión popular de sus películas. Todo ello eclosionó en la gira que había emprendido por Latinoamérica, y que acabaría inesperadamente en Colombia, provocando convocatorias populares nunca antes registradas, y que sólo volverían a registrarse con la aparición de los Beatles. ¿Cuáles fueron las circunstancias que hicieron posible semejante fenómeno? ¿Cómo construyó este artista el tango cantado, música de fusión de definida presencia internacional? ¿Cómo el pequeño inmigrante francés logró sintetizar en la cosmopolita Buenos Aires de comienzos del siglo XX la extraordinaria oferta musical sustentada en las migraciones internacionales y nacionales que se desparramaron por las salas de espectáculos de la ciudad? ¿Cómo se lanzó a la conquista de los principales centros internacionales, y logró imponerse como uno de los grandes referentes del canto popular?Estos procesos, su vida y su arte, son presentados en este libro donde dos reconocidos especialistas en la temática, Julián y Osvaldo Barsky, han producido una nueva biografía de Gardel, apoyados en recientes investigaciones volcadas aquí en forma atractiva, presentando al hombre y al artista en su esforzada trayectoria para construirse a sí mismo y para imponer definitivamente la forma de cantar el tango. Rigor académico y un fresco material de época se funden para hacer de este libro una obra imperdible sobre el mayor artista popular del mundo de habla hispana.Julián Barsky / Osvaldo Barsky
