Description:

The soul of the tango giant Astor Piazzolla (1921-1992) is here! This is the greatest hits album that led the Piazzolla boom in the classical and jazz worlds in the late 1990s. Released in 1997, Yo-Yo Ma visited Buenos Aires and recorded this album with Argentine tango masters who had performed with Piazzolla. The TV commercial featuring Yo-Yo Ma has become a hot topic! This is a record that should be handed down to future generations, born from Yo-Yo Ma’s relentless pursuit of music, including the hit “Libertango” and a fantastic collaboration with Piazzolla recorded in 1987 (7). Since the release of this album, playing Piazzolla on cello has become a standard. Sony Music
