Astor Piazzolla's much-loved tangos have been arranged for all manner of instrument line-ups, this album presenting an exuberant selection whose members are professors of their instruments in leading Italian conservatories. The Quintet is joined by guest violinist Andrea Tacchi. The result is a thrilling new take on nuevo tango, passionate yet poised, sharp and shiny as a knife-blade. The centerpiece of the album, Piazzolla's witty Four Seasons Suite takes Vivaldi's famous violin concertos for a stroll through the docklands of Buenos Aires, the original home of tango itself.
