Salon Buenos Aires - Two Grammy Nomination 2010, Bridge Records

http://www.migueldelaguila.com for music: m@migueldelaguila.com Miguel del Aguila Salon Buenos Aires CD Bridge Records Camerata San Antonio Grammy Nomination 2010 for: Best Classical Album and Best Contemporary Classical Music Composition categories SALON BUENOS AIRES Op.84 for chamber ensemble (piano, flute, clarinet, violin, viola and cello) 1. Samba 2. Tango To Dream 3. Obsessed Milonga Commission by the Cactus Pear Music Festival in 2005, it was premiered by the Festivals ensemble in San Antonio, TX the same year. Written in three movements Salon Buenos Aires is a nostalgic musical trip to 1950’s Buenos Aires. The music conveys the general mood of this period of great prosperity and optimism that preceded the social collapse of the 1970’s in the hands of militaristic regimes. The mood is set by numerous South American dance forms used throughout the work. From carefree Brazilian Samba rhythms to old fashioned melodramatic Tangos and Milongas (an Uruguayan dance which preceded Tango). After a bright upbeat first movement, the next “Tango to Dream” starts with a mysterious introduction to a Lullaby that slowly acquires a beat to transform itself into a dramatic, passionate Tango. In the final movement, a Milonga rhythm is distorted into irregular patterns as its constant beat drives the piece from the good spirited lightness of the beginning to an out of control obsessive finale. Salon Buenos Aires recording by Camerata San Antonio was included on the CD of the same name which was nominated for two Latin Grammys in 2010. CD available on Bridge Records. The version for orchestra of Salon Buenos aires is also available through Peermusic. "South America is one place where classical music survives and even thrives. Composers eagerly mine folk music and transform them into satisfying modern structures. Golijov is the current template, but Miguel del Aguila, his Argentinean colleague, is a big player as well, and this engaging program shows why. Put on the opening track, Charango Capriccioso, a dissonant Andean dance encased in exquisitely lyrical cello sounds, and you will immediately be transported into another world. Written between 1996 and 2006 these colorful and imaginative chamber pieces combine tango, mambo, salsa, and other dance elements with Aguila's own brand of modernism. This is an altogether cheering release." - American Record Guide Author: Mike Greenberg STAFF Section: Metro and State News Publish Date: December 3, 2007 You might guess from the Salón Buenos Aires title that composer Miguel del Aguila is Argentine, and indeed there are pieces here that extend the tango/classical fusion language of Astor Piazzolla. Hear the fugal "Obsessed Milonga" finale of the title work, Salón Buenos Aires, Op. 84 (track 5), for example. But even in that work there is a sense of humor distinct from Piazzolla and entirely characteristic of many of the works on this enjoyable album. sdfhjefjh189efjkAFQ(I#(J_
