Matteo Mela, Complete Guitar Music of Astor Piazzolla CD

We're sorry, this item in no longer available

Among Astor Piazzolla’s works, the group of guitar compositions is a very significant one, although he didn’t write anything for the instrument until the early 1980s. The cycle known as Cinco Piezas (Five Pieces) was composed in 1981. In March 1985, Piazzolla and his old friend Cacho Tirao premiered the Concerto for Bandoneon and Guitar at the Liège Guitar Festival in Belgium, which saw also the premiere of Histoire du Tango. Less than a year later, in 1984, Piazzolla had completed his Tango Suite. Because of the wealth of colors, solid formal cohesion, and perfect balance between the instruments, these pieces can be counted among the most important works in late twentieth-century guitar repertoire. Features Matteo Mela (guitar), Lorenzo Micheli (guitar), Per Arne Glorvigen (bandoneon), Ivan Rabaglia (violin) and I Solisti di Parma. 74 minutes
