RENACERE: Piazzolla x Cangiano (EPSA MUSIC)
This song collection follows a journey little known of Piazzolla’s musical life. Before becoming the icon of New Tango, Astor Piazzolla was the bandoneon player of the most important traditional tango orchestra of Argentina, the Aníbal Troilo Orchestra. He left Argentina and traveled widely to France, USA and then back to Argentina. The CD includes some compositions from this journey from traditional tango, passing through Jazz, Latin American Folk and afro music, up to his new tango compositions created in collaboration with the poet Horacio Ferrer. Arranged by Argentine pianist-composer Miguel Pereiro and guitar player and composer Hernán Reinado, the songs were recorded with the participation of special guests musicians such as violin player and composer Fabián Bertero, saxo player and composer Bernardo Monk, guitar player and composer Quique Sinesi, flute player and composer Julián Vat, bass players Roberto Amerise and Nicolás Zacarías, and percussionists and composers, Quintino Cinalli and Pipi Piazzolla (Piazzolla’s grandson).
