In the beginning of 1940, in parallel with the growth of the most qualified orchestras, such as Troilo’s, Pugliese’s, Di Sarli’s or Gobbi’s, other groups, more related to the traditional forms of expression, had a pleasant reaction from the audience, which placed them amongst the great personalities of tango around that time. In those circumstances, Alfredo De Angelis’ orchestra was born. It had very simple interpretative proposals, but it was very easy to understand by those who preferred simple, harmonic and beautiful musical manifestations. De Angelis’ group never gave place to their integrants personal luster, although some of them were very gifted artists. However, it always granted outstanding vocal performances, since singers were the ones who, mostly, determined the real attraction of the orchestra.
