SOLI Chamber Ensemble continues its season with Reflection on 100 Years of Tango – a celebration of Astor Piazzolla’s 100th birthday with the colors of movement as heard through music. Works by Piazzolla and arrangements by Clarice Assad and San Antonio composer Aaron Prado complement an evening highlighting the Tango’s many hues.
Piazzolla’s genius is reflected in the infinite ways he stretched the genre of the Tango, inspiring many to capture their heritage on the creative canvas. Clarice Assad’s imaginative arrangements of Los Pajaros Perdidos and Yo Soy Maria explore the nuances of Piazzolla’s lyrical lines. Aaron Prado's recent adaptation of his Ofrenda, written in 2015 as a tribute to Frida Kahlo, mirrors the artist’s complex and colorful life in the lilting piano waltz and contrapuntal tango. SOLI rounds out the program with an artful selection of Piazzolla’s works including the playful Bordel 1900, the majestic Le Grand Tango, and the ever-popular Libertango.
