*** Tango was always a "dirty word," says Piazzolla. It belonged to the lowlifes and the underworld. The Pope considered the dance so lascivious that it was banned, allowed only between men. ***

Here, two men perform the tango. :-)

  • Greg,

    Many people agree this is the best arrangement of Oblivion for a solo instrument and piano. Please, please publish it. What does the Piazzolla estate want in order for an arrangement to be published? Please comply with it, you have many fans waiting to purchase it.

  • This is such a lyrical performance...sensuously beautiful music! The subtle, tender delivery of both parts of this tango strongly contribute to the high quality of this arrangement. This is art of high caliber! I'm hoping to purchase the printed music from your website someday, Greg! I listened to another performance of your arrangement on YouTube (so it must be out there somewhere!), but this performance is the one I overwhelmingly prefer. Bravo, Carl and Greg!

  • The cats came in the right time indeed.

  • Hey Carl, this is fantastic! Love the mood of the video with the music too... must get this piece!

  • Just wonderful...

  • Mesmerising! this music makes you fall in love, float, feel lighter, it gives so many emotions. Thanks for sharing this
