Episode South America… Chôros, Tangos and a little bit of Opera.
'Unfairly neglected' is a bit of a cliché and pretty subjective but I do think it could describe a mass of great music that a lot of us (us Anglos at least) are missing out on… music from South America. Before I put this episode together I only knew about half the pieces I am going to play. The rest are as new for me as I suspect they might be for you. Which is, I hope, more of a positive than a negative. I don't think I can even get away with describing this episode as 'scratching the surface'… not just because it seems to be 'cliché day' here at Mending Wall Studios… but because an hour and a bit is not a lot of time for the music of an entire continent. Still, it's perhaps worth starting somewhere. Please enjoy music from… Astor Piazzola, Heitor Villa-Lobos, Osvaldo Golijov, Alberto Ginastera and Camargo Guarnieri.
