Format: MP3

Alongside Fortmann's tango, delicate in its use of soft timbral textures and nostalgic neo-impressionist harmonies, Piazzolla's unforgettably romantic and captivating Tangos are brought to life by the Accademia Amiata Ensemble in a series of provocative new arrangements.

A fine performance featuring the Tirana String Quartet and jazz saxophonist Steve Potts.
