In 1920, Casimiro Aín returned to Paris with Jazmín to compete in the World Championship of Modern Dances. They won on June 16, overcoming 150 couples at the iconic Marigny Theater.
At the same time, bandoneonists Manuel Pizarro and “El Tano” Genaro Expósito were forming an orchestra to perform at the fashionable cabaret Princesse. Pizarro invited El Vasco to join the project, but his private lessons left him no time.
Casimiro’s fame only expanded. Soon he toured Europe and Egypt with the German dancer Edith Peggy, with whom he appears dancing in the German silent film “Abwege.”
A vital moment in the early global rise of Tango.
