Astor Piazzolla is, without any doubt, the best-known composer of Argentinian music. At the crossroads of numerous styles, his work jubilantly combines tango, classical music and jazz. Initially rejected for his ‘avantgardism’ by the upholders of traditional tango, his style ended up imposing itself to the point of becoming the genre’s figure of reference. In this album, Astoria embarks on a new theme in this great composer’s life and career: the film scores. Between Enrico IV, Illustrious Corpses or Tango: The Exile of Gardel, the ensemble proposes the discovery, on the one hand, of the scores composed for the cinema and, on the other, pieces reprised by great film directors for adorning their creations with the colours of the Piazzolla tango.
