Daniel Rowland: I remember so well the moment I first heard Marcelo play, in the beautiful and historic Holywell Music Room in Oxford, in the autumn of 2009. I'm sure that Piazzolla like the young Marcelito so much because he saw not only a serious, of course very talented your artists with a huge tango-heart, but also someone who would push the boundaries of tango, keep innovating and daring to experiment, while respecting the tradition. We in the quintet very strongly feel this unique connection between Piazzolla and Marcelo, it is a great inspiration. Marcelo grew up in Buenos Aires and met Piazzolla as a child, when Astor's legendary quintet would rehearse at his parents home. Description This vibrant album is the outcome of a great encounter between an inquisitive classical musician and the person who is probably the most qualified pupil and scholar of Astor Piazzolla. This is surely the most direct, and incredible insight into the master's interpretation of his music that one could possible dream of! Piazzolla would tell Marcelo: 'Marcelito, come and stand behind me as we rehearse and follow my printed score, and listen to what I actually play' - often these two things where very different!
