Über Carlos Gardel
The most iconic figure in tango history and one of the most influential Latin American musicians of the 20th century. Gardel transformed tango from a dance-hall form into a global art through his recordings and films. His voice defined the Golden Age of tango, and his tragic death in a plane crash in Medellín cemented his legend.
