Michael Lavocah

Michael Lavocah is classified in the dossier as a dancer ^[1]. The available claims do not describe his life or dancing. They record only that he commented on recordings, orchestras and compositions ^[1][2][3][4].

The sources for these claims are two articles, "What's all the fuss about pitch?" and "Tango and Coffee: Is 'El tigre Millán' this year's 'Tormenta'?" ^[1][2], and two audio pages titled "Tango 1939" and "Tango 1943" ^[3][4]. None of the sources supplies a quoted excerpt, so the content of his comments cannot be reported here ^[1][2][3][4].

Commentary on orchestras

The dossier records Michael Lavocah as having commented on the orchestra of Juan D'Arienzo ^[1][2]. One such claim carries the date 18 April 1939 ^[1]. Another is dated to the year 1939 ^[2].

He is also recorded as having commented on the orchestra of Aníbal Troilo, in a claim covering the period 1939 to 1940 ^[2]. The dossier does not state what he said about either orchestra ^[1][2].

Commentary on recordings

Several claims connect Michael Lavocah with commentary on recordings identified by label ^[1][2]. Two separate RCA Victor recordings are each dated 3 March 1939 in claims sourced to the article on pitch ^[1]. A further RCA Victor recording is dated to 1939 ^[2].

Three Odeon recordings are also linked to his commentary ^[2]. One is dated to 1939, and the other two carry no date ^[2]. The dossier does not identify these recordings beyond their label names ^[1][2].

Commentary on compositions

The dossier links Michael Lavocah to commentary on La cumparsita, with a claim dated 16 October 2020 ^[3]. It also links him to El rey del bosque, with a claim dated 10 October 2020 ^[3]. Both claims are sourced to the "Tango 1939" page ^[3].

He is further recorded as having commented on Siga el baile, in a claim dated 3 May 2021 and sourced to the "Tango 1943" page ^[4]. The dossier does not make clear whether these dates refer to when the comments were made or to some other event ^[3][4].
