An atmospheric two part arrangement of this familiar tango piece and probably quite a challenge for an intermediate level violinist. A tempo of 60-66 quarter note (crotchet) notes to the minute is recommended. Ãngel Villoldo (1861-1919) was an Argentinian composer and a pioneer of tango which became very popular from both the music and dancing point of view towards the end of the nineteenth century. It is popular today both in Argentina from where it originates and is a familiar and recognisable music style around the world. The English translation of El Choclo is the "The Ear of Corn".
