Con cierto toque de tango

Sverre Indris Joner writes of this new release: “Orchestrating Argentine tango does present its challenges. One possible solution is to try to make the orchestra sound as much like a tango ensemble, an “orquesta tipica,” as possible. Another option is to cut a few corners and translate it into an easier language for the more conventional orchestra to ecipher. A third is to invent new, unfamiliar solutions. I’ve done a bit of all three here… I have certainly run the gamut of styles as a composer- everything from tango & salsa to waltz & pols (Norwegian folk dance), from electronica and hip hop to music for films, theatre and dance. With this orchestral album you’ll get an insight into my musical universe “with a certain hint of tango.”
