Toña la Negra, cada noche un amor, bolero, Agustín Lara - YouTube pslogge

Toña la Negra, born Maria Antonia del Carmen Peregrino Alvarez, Veracruz 1912-- Mexico City 1982, was an Afro-Mexican singer known for her interpretation of boleros, sones, rumbas and songs especially by Agustín Lara. She also sang for the famous cuban orchestra Sonora Matancera. Her earthy, soft, dark voice caught my immediate attention. I hope you will like her. Mexican composer Agustín Lara, 1897 --1970, was born in Veracruz state. After Lara's mother died, Agustín and his siblings lived in a hospice run by their aunt. It was there that he had his first contact with music. Lara's first musical composition was "Marucha". In 1927 he already was working in cabarets. Later he started working for the tenor Juan Arvizu. In 1930, Lara began a successful radio career. At the same time he acted and composed songs for films. Lara's first tour in Cuba,in 1933, was a failure because of political turmoil on the island. Later, the more successful tours in South America, and the new compositions ("Solamente Una Vez", "Veracruz", "Tropicana", and "Pecadora"), increased his fame. By the beginning of the 1940s, Lara was well-known in Spain. In 1965, the Spanish Caudillo, Francisco Franco, gave him a house in Granada to show his appreciation of Lara's songs with Spanish themes, such as "Toledo", "Cuerdas de mi guitarra", "Granada", "Seville", and "Madrid". He received additional honours and decorations from around the world, I hope from more respectable sources. At the time of his death in Mexico city, Lara had written more than 700 songs. The photos in the video are mine. Cada noche un amor, distinto amanecer, diferente vision. Cada noche un amor, pero dentro de mi, solo tu amor quedo. Oye te digo en segreto que te amo de veras, Que sigo de cerca tus pasos aunque tu no quieras, Que siento tu vida por mas que te alejes de mi, Que nada, ni nadie hará que me olvide de ti. (bis:mi pecho se olvide de ti.) Enjoy.
