"Fuga y Misterio (Fugue and Mystery)" by Astor Piazzolla, Reaction/Analysis by Musician/Producer

Original Video:    • Piazzolla - Fuga y Misterio (Gidon Kremer ...  

Astor Piazzolla is one of the most important musicians of any genre from the 20th century. He almost single handedly redefined the style of tango, and in his compositions, he combined the rhythmic drive of the tango dance form with the Western-European harmony and form that he studied in France during the 1950s.

This piece - Fuga y misterio (translation: Fugue and Mystery) - was written in 1968, and is one of the most electrifying examples of this melding of Argentine tango and Bach-esque compositional technique.

This particular arrangement however was written by the featured vibraphone player from Russia (Andrei Pushkarev) and gives both the vibraphone and the solo violin (played by the renowned violinist Gidon Kremer, who has championed Piazzolla's music in the last few decades) an opportunity to improvise around the fugue's theme when it returns a second time...! The musicianship in this rendition from the two soloists and the amazing orchestra is truly astounding and it remains one of my favourite performances of any piece of music I've ever seen.
