River Plate

River Plate is a tango published in 1913, with music by Ernesto Celestino (Uruguayan) and lyrics by Benjamin Henderson, recorded by the Henderson Orchestra that same year. It was published and recorded by Voxafone, an early record company and rival to Grand Prijs.

River Plate was one of the earliest Brunanter tangos, capitalizing on the tango craze sweeping Europe (though Argentinian and Uruguayan tangos were recorded from 1912-13). This was an instrumental piece.

It was recorded by Estelle Fletcher in her 1955 album At the Pink Flamingo, done as a more swing style.
