Astor Piazzolla ~ Complete music for flute and guitar


The seductive sound and renewed interest in the Tango has brought the music of the Argentinian composer, Astor Piazzolla, into the world of the popular classics. His large catalogue of works is unique in using the Tango as the basis for all of his compositions, though he developed the art to the point where it is difficult to detect the dance in his complex and strictly classical music.This CD contains some of the most beautiful pieces written for guitar and flute. It is not the most recognized work of Piazzolla, yet no one can deny a pure mastery and delightful cadenzas in solo pieces.
