Approach
Chapter 1 explains that the earlier volumes began with the sound of each orchestra and the musicians who created it. It argues that Canaro's band, with a career going back to 1912, was not built around individuals in the same way. Instead the book adopts, from the author's Tango Stories, a division of the career into rise (up to the trip to Paris in 1925/6), dominance (1927–1938) and decline (after the departure of Roberto Maida in 1939). It gives 3,801 as its best estimate of Canaro's total recordings and largely sets aside the almost 900 acoustic recordings of the first stage.
