Rising out of the traditional Argentinian tango and absorbing jazz, the music of Astor Piazzolla succeeds in fusing both popular rhythms and a classical culture. It finds its quintessence in the Concerto for bandoneon (1979). As the musical expression of the solitude of the individual in the heart of urban society, with Piazzolla the tango attains an extraordinary poetic dimension.
