THE MUSIC TRADE REVIEW

flavor and the arrangement is such as will make it
appeal to the pianist who has been discouraged by
the difficulties in mastering the playing of some of
the present popular tangos. The publisher feels
that the originality and general attractiveness of
"The Egyptian Glide" will insure its winning great
success, for those who have already heard the num-
ber are enthusiastic regarding it. Maurice Levi,
the well-known bandmaster, who is at present fur-
nishing the music for New York's most popular
dancing center, the Jardin de Danse, on the roof
of the-New York Theater, is playing''The Egyptian
Glide" regularly and took occasion to compliment
Mr. Paull on the qualities of the piece, stating that
it brought over ;i half dozen encores when first
used.
In the tango arrangement of the piece there is
found on the inside cover some interesting, and to
many, new, information regarding the origin and
general character of the real tango. According to
facts gathered by Mr. Paull, the tango originated
in Indo-China some hundreds of years ago and
was the accepted folk dance of the province of
Tang-Ho, and that instead of originating in Ar-
gentina the dance was brought to the South Amer-
ican Republic by gypsies who had danced it
throughout Europe for centuries. In addition to
facts regarding the origin of the tango there is
also included with the tango arrangement of "The
Egyptian Glide" some hints as to the proper method
of executing the dance.
In order to afford the entire trade an oppor-
tunity to secure and try out "The Egyptian Glide"
the E. T. Paull Music Co. makes a special offer to
dealers in this issue of The Review.
