Piercarlo Sacco|Andrea Dieci - Piazzolla: La Calle 92

This is the LP release of the succesful CD recording on Brilliant Classics. Astor Piazzolla (1921-1992), Argentina's most famous composer, was the grandson of Italian immigrants, and the melancholy for an abandoned and lost country lends a sweetly poignant note to his music. He was unique in the way he was able to weave the sweet noises of life into pure melody and harmony in his works. There is a sort of visual lyricism in his melodies that invest his compositional skill with the strength and vitality of his origins as a folk musici- an, as an artist who was deeply familiar with every secret of the Tango.
