| | Francisco Canaro had a classic rags-to-riches story. He taught himself to play the violin on an instrument he had made for himself out of an oil tin and a stick, and became one of the most successful tango musicians of all time, leading his own orchestra for over fifty years up to his death in 1964. He was one of the creators of the tango fantasía style (tangos written as concert pieces rather than to be danced to) while at the same time recording with his Quinteto Pirincho fine dedicated dance music.
