Synopsis

Amazon.com
Le Grand Tango is played as Piazzolla wrote it, for cello and piano. His other pieces here were arranged by Jose Bragato. Like Piazzola, Cirigliano, a younger Argentine composer, has based his music on the tango. His charming music isn't as intense as Piazzolla's, so it makes a good interlude. While I miss the sound of Piazzolla's bandoneon, it's a pleasure to hear this collection of his substantial concert works, played with zest by such expert musicians. And the long disc is intelligently arranged as a continuous listening program; if you love the music, you'll play it straight through. --Leslie Gerber
 

CD Reviews

Es una seleción excelente
Sebastián Giraldo | Colombia | 01/20/2002
(5 out of 5 stars)

"La versión de las cuatro estaciones porteñas de este disco guardan una fidelidad impresionante con las versiones originales de las cuatro estaciones porteñas de buenos aires. A pesar de que son una adaptación para una orquesta de camara, es bastante agradable escucharlas. LE Grand Tango, es bastante buena, incluso mucho mejor (DEFINITIVAMENTE) que la que aparece en el disco de yo-yo MA "soul of the tango". A cada persona que le he mostrado este disco (personas que ya conocen la obra de Astor Piazzolla), ha querido comprarlo, pero es una lástima que esté "fuera de stock" muy a menudo. Este disco se hizo con motivo del 25 aniversario de la musica camerata de montreal."
