Por una Cabeza (Intermediate/Advanced Level, Solo Piano) Carlos Gardel — Partitura para Piano

Arreglo

The famous Tango "Por una Cabeza", used a great deal in the cinema, was composed by Carlos Gardel in 1935 on a text by Alfredo Le Pera, whose principal theme was probably inspired from Mozart's Rondo in C Major for violin and orchestra, K. 373. The protagonist evokes his addiction for horse racing by drawing a parallel with his attraction to women, hence the title, literally "just for a head", ie. of a woman or a horse.
