To my dear aunt who is a grandmother now.

"I remember spending two weeks at my grandfathers house when I was a little boy. Since I knew none of the kids in the neighborhood all I could was to practice with my tiny Hohner-32 basses. My aunt who is about my age was the only audience of these concerts which invariably had El Choclo, Jalousie, Caminito, A Media Luz and some other popular Tangos in the program. She used to play with her paper dolls she had cut out from newspapers while I was torturing everyone within a mile. An old wooden table was the ballroom of these paper dolls." bh
