- Libertango
Product description
One of the classic tangos from Argentinian composer Astor Piazzolla, Libertango has attained worldwide popularity and remains one of his most popular works. Arranged here in a sensuous Latin rock style, this version features the woodwinds on the main melodic lines, and also a brief solo for trumpet with nicely crafted background figures throughout. Sure to appeal to a wide range of audiences.
Astor Pantaleón Piazzolla (1921-1992) was an Argentine "tango" composer who created a new style of tango music called NUEVO TANGO, adding to tango the basic elements of jazz and classical music. Piazzolla is often referred to as the most important and greatest "tango" composer of the second half of the 20th century.
