| Sensaciones |
Homage to Astor Piazzolla.
Reference: JM 02 CD Price: 15€ Spain / 18€ Rest of world. *buy
Neofusión – Tango
(Quintet)
Javier López Jaso (Accordion), David Johnstone
(Cello), Rafaella Acella (Violin), Angelo
Vieni (Violin) y Fernando López Garcín
(Viola)
This present work arises out of an individual homage
to the remembrance of the tenth anniversary of the death
of Astor Piazzolla (1921-1992). Therefore it is normal
that this disc should revolve around the Tango, the
all-important genre of the Argentine composer. Two works
of Piazzolla, one of them "Le Grand Tango" a fundamental piece in his repertoire, and another less well-known "Five Tango Sensations" (1989) are accompanied by compositions of Albeniz, Bragato, Luis de Pablo, Miquel Ortega i Pujol, and the offering of the cellist David Johnstone.
