Gidon Kremer

The amazing violinist Gidon Kremer has translated the dramatic accordian lines of the great Astor Piazzola as if they where his own. Kremer's violin is accompanied by bandneón, piano, double bass, and at times the clarinet, violincello, percussion, etc. These tangos are both soothing and at times chillingly gorgeous.
