About this Event

Yuko says “This week, I will feature Cátulo Castillo. He was a composer, and also one of the great lyricists of tango. His lyrics seem to heavily feature loss: The Todo Tango biography mentions how often the word 'ultimo' (final) appears in the titles of his pieces. Not that I pretend to be able to follow the lyrics, but featuring him means that lyrical pieces are likely to feature more tomorrow. We'll see.” NB perhaps surprisingly, as well as being a poet and composer, as a young man he was also a champion featherweight boxer. El Boliche: 3 hours or so of lovely tango music, usually from DJ Yuko. No cash?
