I love Piazolla's music. It's real "put the rose in your teeth and throw the wineglass into the fireplace" music. Having said that, I find this couple more interesting if I don't watch them. The theatrics of the video get in the way, at least for me. I saw Yo Yo Ma do this at Ravinia about 5 years ago. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RUAPf_ccobc The guy in the video you posted has a penchant for the theatrical. Here he is playing some Ligeti (I love this piece): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ZTaiDHqs5s |

They ARE about the theatrics. Yeah, they're good players too. Sometimes I find that they just belabor the point. But this was just a bit of fun fluff. |

Definitely good players ... very good, actually. ![]() Though I do wonder if that's really the most efficient arrangement to get the music. I suppose that's how I decide whether it's "fluff." |

Unintentional, I assure you! Appropriate, though.
