Tango: Zero Hour

Tango: Zero Hour (1992) more music like this

by Astor Piazzolla

Considered by Piazzolla to be his best work, 1986's Tango Zero Hour was the culmination of a career that began in Argentina in the 1930s. Piazzolla started out auspiciously enough working with one of the brightest lights of the classic tango era, singer Carlos Gardél. After Gardél's tragic death in 1935 (by turning down an offer to tour with the ...

The Soul of Tango: Greatest Hits

The Soul of Tango: Greatest Hits (2000) more music like this

by Astor Piazzolla

One of a number of posthumous attempts by various labels to present a coherent picture of the whole of Astor Piazzolla's genius, this collection makes that attempt by separating his music into a number of different groups. It begins with an orchestral introduction number, then moves into his first major group on the album, the Quintet, with a pair ...

Hommage A Piazzolla (1996) more music like this

by Astor Piazzolla

From the violinist and Piazzolla fanatic Gidon Kremer comes this album of works by Piazzolla, along with one song in tribute to the legend. He covers a decent range of Piazzolla's work, moving equally well between slower milongas and faster tangos. The album starts out with the relatively somber, but quite dramatic "Milonga en re." It then moves ...

The Rough Guide to Astor Piazzolla

The Rough Guide to Astor Piazzolla (2005) more music like this

by Astor Piazzolla

Astor Piazzolla was one of the greatest musicians to emerge from Argentina, one who took the tango and made it into an art form that stretched between jazz, classical, and even rock, while never losing sight of its soul in the bars of Buenos Aires. This excellent collection covers those facets very adequately, from the cool jazz meets tango mood ...

Summit - Reunion Cumbre

Summit - Reunion Cumbre (1974) more music like this

by Gerry Mulligan/Astor Piazzolla

A superb 1974 session recorded in Milan teams baritone-saxist Gerry Mulligan with the great guru of art-music tango. This is mostly dark and moody music, with a lot of tonal variety and a resolute refusal to fit into any of the handy pigeonholes: a one-off event, wholly successful.

Tangos [Milan] (1998) more music like this

by Various Artists

Tangos is a decent look at the genre, though not an exceptional or definitive one; there are, of course, tracks by the greatest tango musician of all time, Astor Piazzolla, as well as selections by Orquesta Tipica, Carlos Gardel, Andras Adorjan, and Horacio Salfan, to name a few.

Essential Tango (2007) more music like this

by Astor Piazzolla

This double-disc follow-up to 2003's similarly titled The Essential Tangos includes all but two of the dozen tracks that comprised the earlier single-CD collection, rendering that intro virtually superfluous. Like that compilation, this expanded version draws from the tango legend's final years (he died in 1992), its music spanning the '70s and ...

The Vienna Concert (1992) more music like this

by Astor Piazzolla

This concert, recorded in a studio with a live audience in October 1984, is a delight. The program is great fun, containing for example "Caliente," a tune that ranges from the bright to the crepuscular, and which is given a lyrical performance, especially by violinist Fernando Suarez Paz. Piazzolla, no doubt keeping in mind that he is in Europe, ...

by Astor Piazzolla

Piazzolla was nearing the end of his distinguished career when he performed this concert in Switzerland in 1989; he divided it between playing classic material and debuting compositions. The first half was devoted to songs from the 1950s to the late '80s, while the second portion featured new material titled "Tango Nuevo, Nuevo." Each section was ...
