Tango Esperimento:  Paso Primo (ED-CD 086)

 

 

"As I listen to the pre-mix for this record, I’m perusing all the Argentinian tango and Astor Piazzola websites on the net - looking at archival pictures: the once nicely painted signs and posters enticing men into the brothels, the licentious women with their sensual, provocative movements, or interiors of old bars from Buenos Aires to Paris where 19th-20th Century starving-genius musicians swathed in smoke play their beautiful instruments on hammered together stages that resonate with the repressed desire of the dance. I see Piazzola with Arthur Rubenstein, or with Alberto Ginastrera. I read about Gidon Kremer’s work to make Piazzola popular and I enviously marvel over the fact that a peoples’ music had already - a hundred years ago - made it into the world’s most distinguished concert halls.

 

Hungarian accent can be heard in the material, which I think is good, while at the same time I feel a loyalty to the tradition, knowledge of the style and the spiritual charge that radiates from all true music. I FEEL, I AM PLEASED, I FORGET. I hope that listening to this record will do the same for you. After all, THIS is TANGO. "
