Here, three famous orchestra leaders are shown together in what seems a brotherly fashion, although even in the very companionable Argentine culture there must have been some sort of jealousy or rivalry among artists of this level. Jealousy or not, the caption says that the most famous orchestras of the moment were competing in front of ”a immense audience” in a contest on ”Radio Casino”. I wish I could listen to that now!

Tango Archive
The idea of this website is to give access to (still undiscovered) photos of tango orchestras and singers found in old archive material.
Photographic material of tango music celebrities on the internet is still very scarce and we are working hard to change that.
We collaborate with Tango Time Machine at Tangodecoder.com to make more original material accessible.
Thank you for everything, Michael
