Notes & Reviews   Works on This Recording  
 Notes & Reviews Back to Top 
This disc was nominated for the 1997 Grammy Award for "Best Small Ensemble Performance."
Selections recorded July 1995 at Lockenhaus Castle and January 1996 at Studio Guillaume Tell, Paris, France.
This selection includes liner notes by John Adams.
REVIEWS:
JazzTimes (1-2/97, p.83) - "...a compelling recording of Piazzolla pieces, mostly in small group settings....It's a strong ensemble affair, but clearly the protagonist is the bold Kremer, who imbues Piazzolla's music with proper degrees of intellect and a heaving heart..."
