| This
sextet was one of the most strong foundations tango around that
time had, it was a time of uncertainty for this musical genre,
but the sextet caused a revolution. They performed at cafés
such as Germinal and Tupí Nambá and at radio stations such as
Fenix and America. They also performed at the Centenario
Stadium, in Montevideo, Uruguay. Its singers were Alfredo
Marino, Carlos Lafuente, Nelly de la Vega and Guillermo Arbos.
The group was structured in such a way that allowed personal
luster of its brilliant soloists, who used a peculiar way of
playing: a rhythmic marcation, free of cadences and marked with
syncope effects and elegant rubattos, included in an harmonic
game of high musical hierarchy. This sextet constitutes a
transcendent stage in tango instrumental evolution.
Unfortunately, there are no recordings by Vardaro Sextet, since
they were not considered to be “commercial”.
