    About the song, "Por una Cabeza": 

    "Por una Cabeza" is a beautiful and softer side of tango. The music was composed by a French-Argentine composer, Carlos Gardel. And the lyrics were written by an Argentine lyricist, Alfredo Le Pera. It is about a man comparing his addictions between the horse race gambling and a woman. This song is used in popular films such as "Scent of a Woman," "Schindler's List," "True Lies," "Easy Virtue," "The Tourist," and "Take the Lead." The composer, Carlos Gardel appears in the old movie, "Tango Bar." To learn more about the story behind "Por una Cabeza," please visit our page, "About Por una Cabeza." 

    Tips for playing Level 4 "For una Cabeza":  

    This Level 4 arrangement of "Por una Cabeza" plays the melody with the right hand and harmonic accompaniment with the left hand just like Level 3. However, Level 4 has more rhythmically syncopated bass notes and additional harmony notes below the melody note with the right hand. Therefore, it's a lot harder than Level 3. The damper (sustain) pedal markings are precisely provided. So, please take advantage of them. Please play louder (forte) on the 2nd page which is the 2nd section of this piece to make this song sounds very passionate. You can refer to our free complete audio sample on the top of this page before or after purchasing it. This arrangement is written for piano solo. However, you or someone else can sing along. The separate Spanish lyrics page is included in the PDF file.
