| | | Piazzolla
| | Although he had been born in Argentina, Astor Piazzolla was brought up in New York. He arrived in Buenos Aires at the age of seventeen, in 1938, and played his bandoneón with a number of orchestras, before getting a job with Anibal Troilo, for whom he also did arrangements. When vocalist Fiorentino left Troilo in 1944, he took Piazzolla with him. By 1946 Piazzolla had his own orchestra.

|  | El Musico y El Poeta
Astor Piazzolla is best known for his recordings from the 1970s and 1980s, when he found a whole new audience for the idea of Tango and the bandoneón. Recordings he made in the 1940s are also reasonably easy to come by. But this CD represents the most neglected, and possibly most interesting part of his career - the late 1960s and early 1970s.Piazzolla's collaboration with the poet Horacio Ferrer between 1967 and 1973 represents the turning point in his career, and his first taste of real success. Here Piazzolla finally left behind the tradition of Tango dance music, and found the unique voice that was to make him internationally famous. This CD contains rare recordings of Piazzolla playing bandoneón solos while Ferrer recites the lyrics, as well as Piazzolla's orchestral recording with singers Amelita Baltar and Roberto Goyeneche. It is certainly not dance music, but it records an important moment in the history of Tango. It is a CD that no Piazzolla fan should be without. Balada para un Loco - Ferrer
