Jose Lucchesi Orchestra - Espuma De Champagne - текст песни, слова, перевод, видео

Radio "Mayak", the program "Rarely sounding notes", says Vsevolod Timokhin:

... I remember that after the war I conducted an investigation against the most popular work - pre -war tango "Champagne spray." Not one generation of music lovers danced under this truly legendary instrumental play. But no one could say what it was called in the original, who is the author and what kind of orchestra performs. The census from a foreign disk on Soviet pavements appeared in 1937. On the labels it was: "Spray of champagne." Tango. Span. orc. U/U Luisi. "For more than half a century it was generally accepted. It was also on the reprinted long-playing plates, and even on the CDs. Only none of the collectors I knew was found anywhere else. But the pre-war pavements of the French branch of the company came across "Polydor" with the records of the orchestra of the Jose Lucchesi, who performed in the 20-30s of the twentieth century in Paris. We had a strong suspicion that the mythical Luis was the real suicide, only the workers of the Soviet gramplasttex distorted him The surname (which happened in those years very often). But how to prove?

Once I managed to accidentally look into the notebook of the 1937 gram recordings, in which the dates of records and matrix record numbers were affixed. The notebooks were filled by hand. So, against the name “Count of Champagne”, the authors remained unfilled, and in the column “Contractor” stood: “Luches” (that is, reading the Latin American surname in the English manner). It is only written so clumsy that the letter combination "Che" was perceived by the subsequent authorities as the letter "and". Therefore, on the labels of Soviet publications, the non-existent Luisi was listed. It turned out to be even harder with authorship. Already today, one of the radio editors, filling out the card on the radio fund, "appointed" the author of the famous Oscar line. Of course, the lines were a brilliant composer, but the music of "champagne spray" did not write. "Duck" flew out and went for a walk on radio stations and repertoire lists. In the end, the collectors managed to find a foreign plate - the source. "Squints of champagne" is not a completely accurate translation. If literally - "foaming champagne" (or "champagne bubbles"). Although, of course, "spray" sounds more poetic. Yes, and everyone is accustomed to such a name. The author was a certain A.M. Lucjesi (most likely, the brother of the head of the orchestra). So it was possible to paint over another white spot of musical history.
