Description
Astor Piazzolla revolutionised the tango idiom with his nuevo tango style, fusing traditional Argentine forms with jazz harmony and contemporary classical structures to create something entirely his own. This CD brings together some of his most enduring compositions, including the achingly beautiful Adios Nonino — written in memory of his father — and the propulsive, internationally celebrated Libertango, a piece that introduced his music to audiences far beyond Buenos Aires. Bandoneon showcases his virtuosity on the instrument he made synonymous with his name, while Milonga Tres and Violentango demonstrate the rhythmic range and emotional depth that define his best work. An essential CD for any admirer of adventurous, passionate music…
