"Latin Latitudes" is a musical journey between two latitudes, connected by latin musical roots. The composers originate from Spain and Italy, Latin and South America.
Astor Piazzolla, Argentina's most famous composer, was the grandson of Italian immigrants, and in his music the melancholy for an abandoned and lost country lends a sweetly poignant atmosphere.
The Waltz by Tárrega brings us back to 19‐th century Vienna. Crossing the ocean again we meet Augustin Barrios, who brought European charm to Latin America. Leo Brouwer is Cuba's most famous guitar composer as is Heitor Villa‐Lobos for Brazil.
Guitarist Luciano Tortorelli plays also a composition of his own: Dobrú noc Brno. Inspired by a traditional Czech Berceuse it is an homage to the famous Brno Guitar Festival.
