The ensemble then delves into the dramatic "María de Buenos Aires" and concludes with the four movements of "Concierto del Ángel," a hauntingly beautiful work that explores themes of life, death, and transcendence.
With their impeccable technique and expressive playing, the Artemis Quartet breathes new life into Piazzolla's music, offering listeners a unique and engaging experience. Whether you're a longtime fan of Piazzolla or a newcomer to his work, "The Piazzolla Project" is sure to captivate and inspire.
