Latin Landscapes - Choro, Tango & More

Each country in South America has over the centuries produced varied popular traditions and distinctive dance rhythms. These include the vivacious and zestful Brazilian choro, as well as the Argentinian tango, of which we hear an example from 'the father of the tango', angel Villoldo. French composer Roland Dyens contributes Bresils, his refined tribute to the musical landscape of Brazil. The Guitalian Quartet have arranged Arturo Marquez's popular Danzon No. 2 along with several other vibrant and evocative pieces from Brazil, Argentina and Mexico.
