Astor Piazzolla: Libertango: (Arr. Lorenzo Bocci): Concert Band

Astor Piazzolla (1921-1992) revolutionized the tango: with his bandoneon (instrument similar to the accordion), he dared where others did not. During his career, which started in the 1950’s, Piazzolla produced a real revolution, developing the musical structure of the tango in a truly innovative way. He also understood from the very beginning the huge expressiveness of tango. In recent years the tango has again become extremely popular and this arrangement of one of Piazzolla’s most famous pieces will be an instant hit with both band and audience.
