Polish Tango: Musiałem cię zostawić, Bob & Harris 1937

Musiałem cię zostawić... (I Had To Leave You) Tango dedicated to Polish emmigrants in America (J.Kagan, W.Tychowski - Izabella) - Orchestra dir by. Jerzy Gert, Vocal duett: Bob & Harris, Odeon 1937

NOTE: This tango was written by two fine composers: Jakub Kagan, author of many excellent tangos (go to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7h3ockmlMnQ ) and Witold Tychowski, who led a famous Hawaiian guitar orchestra in Warsaw. The song's subtitle (not present on the label) was „Tango dedicated to American Polonia" (the Latin name of Poland: Polonia, is an old habitual term for Polish emigrant diaspore in the world). The lyrics, written by the author who hides under a pseudonym „Izabella", is a rather banal expression of love and longing for Poland - that „I had lo leave" but „I will come back" ,as it 's stated in the end. A mastrely Jerzy Gert's bandleading makes this recording one more lovely finding in the Polish tangoes collection.

Irresistible music and orchestration, and beautiful singing. The artistic posters are so enticing.

Look at the Art Deco paintings by Zofia Stryjeńska - another Polish famous female painter, equal in age (and in talent!) to Tamara L.

Thanks Genia. That car on the road to Morskie Oko is repeated in a winter scenery of Zakopane, in another great painting by Rafał Malczewski. It's inserted in my slideshow for the tango "Czy pamiętasz tę noc w Zakopanem"
