Piazzolla Las Cuatro Estaciones Porteñas (live excerpts by I Musici & H.U. Passarella)

“I would be offended if they said that my music is light, trivial. My music is a chamber music that comes from the tango... well, there are a lot of ways to define it. If I were a composer of contemporary music, I couldn't use tango for making the music I make. I can go to a poly-rhythm, to bitonal or tritonal chords, but I can't go beyond, because I must keep some swing, some sense of rhythm at the base. Then, in the 'upper', I adorn it with music. My “audacity” is in the harmony, in the rhythms, in the counter-tempi, in the beautiful counterpoint that two or three instruments can make... And you don't always have to make it tonal, you can go to atonality also. (From an interview to Gonzalo Saavedra in Santiago July, 1989) Astor Piazzolla is universally known as the father of the “Nuevo Tango,” which incorporates elements from jazz and classical music into the traditional tango to create a unique and electrifying fusion of musical styles. He was born in Mar del Plata, Argentina, in 1921, the only child of Italian immigrant parents, Vicente "Nonino" Piazzolla and Assunta Manetti. His paternal grandfather, a sailor and fisherman named Pantaleón Piazzolla, had immigrated to Mar del Plata from Trani, a seaport in the southeastern Italian region of Apulia, at the end of the 19th century. While his mother was the daughter of two Italian immigrants from Massa Sassorosso, a small village in the central-north Italian region of Tuscany. Piazzolla took classic music lessons with the Hungarian classical pianist Bela Wilda, a pupil of Rachmaninoff, who taught him to play Bach on his bandoneon. The pianist Arthur Rubinstein, at that time living in Buenos Aires, advised him to study with Alberto Ginastera and delving into scores of Stravinsky, Bartók, Ravel, and others. Piazzolla won a grant from the French government to study in Paris with the legendary French composition teacher Nadia Boulanger at the Fontainebleau conservatory. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Héctor Ulises Passarella (Uruguay, 1955) Born in Florida, Uruguay, in 1955, is considered one of the best player of bandoneòn and one of the most interesting composers of modern tango. The unmistakable sound and the particular expressiveness of the phrasing have done him the admiration of the public, criticism and great musicians: L. Bacalov, Myung- Whun Chung, Ionescu Galati, Leo Brawer, Donato Renzetti , and many other; directors as Emidio Greco, Michael Radford, Robert Duvall, etc... Memorabile collaboration with Luis Bacalov, of interpretation of Passarella of so many soundtracks of the master starting from that the famous fil “the Postman” until “ Frontera sur”, Milonga”, “La Deuda”, “ Love letter” “Assassination Tango” as for many other recitals. Among the numerous recordings, it is of particular importance the Cd “Màs allà del Tango”, in which appears his research in composition and interpretation of tango. In 2009 he founded the “Centre of Bandoneòn” in Rome in the “Istituto Italo-Latino-Americano” under the promotion of the Embassy of Uruguay. He receives also the title of honour “Cavaliere della Repubblica Italiana” by the President of Italian Republic. http://www.imusicidiroma.com http://www.ulisespassarella.com
