Description:

I found some music thats just as cool as Piazzollas!The Piazzolla craze swept through the music world at the end of the 20th century. Piazzolla is synonymous with Argentina, and Ive discovered music from that country that will captivate even those who arent guitar fans. In particular, the two suites by Puholwho was deeply influenced by Piazzollaare absolutely superb. The standout among them is No. 2; lets let ourselves cry our hearts out to its sweet melody, which I believe is one of the greatest ever written for guitar. The remarkable interpretive power of No. 1 and No. 3 is also breathtaking. Although the suite is themed around South America, No. 7with its inexplicable Asian flairis another piece worth noting for its exotic charm. The performer is an Argentine-born guitarist who has a deep personal connection to these works.Naxos Japan
