Jordan, Piazzolla was from an Italian family. The name "Piazzolla" is an Italian name. His family spoke Italian at home. Astor spoke fluent Italian.

You and Polashek made these youngsters perform magnificently. The Las Vegas Phil couldn't have played it better. You, as usual, gave a bravo rendition. I love this piece..ever since I heard you in concert. Guido

Great performance by Doktorski. And I drove over 500 miles to hear the concert!!!
Also great performance by Mrs. Polashek and her orchestra - as well as the the duet with Emil Polashek!
