I chose this song because I played a string orchestra version of this Piazzolla composition in high school and my mom loved it. She consistently keeps this recording in her playlists when she listens to music. As we discussed in class, Astor Piazzolla was an Argentinian composer who wrote a lot of tangos and incorporated elements of other genres, such as jazz, within his compositions. This is due to him being born in Argentina and moving to New York with his parents. There are many different arrangements of this piece for different ensembles and many artists and orchestras have performed and recorded this piece.
