La Cumparsita is considered the tango most spread worldwide. The melody was created and written in 1917 by the Uruguayan musician Gerardo Matos Rodríguez who likewise create his letter in 1926. It is the popular and cultural anthem of Uruguay from a presidential decree of February 2, 1998.

* "I believe that I could never do another equal tango... Hereinafter I composed other tangos and musical others, some probably better than the first one. But this one (The Cumparsita) encloses a world of illusions and of sadnesses, of dreams and of homesickness that alone are lived at the age of twenty. It was a magic moment. And wizard was his destination. What a lot of mysteries concerning(around) him(it), what a lot of lawsuits! Rivers of ink and kilometres of paper it has been in use for exalt it or it for doing pieces.."

* Gerardo Matos Rodriguez
