Review by Wasin Kachapri

The album Piazzolla by Orchestre National De Jazz, Daniel Yvinec, Gil Goldstein is a stunning tribute to the legendary Argentine composer and bandoneón player Astor Piazzolla. The album features 10 tracks, each showcasing the unique blend of jazz and tango that Piazzolla was known for.

Led by conductor and bassist Daniel Yvinec, the Orchestre National De Jazz brings a fresh and contemporary interpretation to Piazzolla's music. The arrangements are intricate and layered, with each instrument adding its own voice to the mix. The result is a rich and dynamic sound that is both nostalgic and modern.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Libertango," a Piazzolla classic that has been covered by countless artists over the years. The Orchestre National De Jazz's version is both faithful to the original and innovative. The addition of Goldstein's accordion gives the track a unique texture and adds to the overall richness of the sound.

Another highlight is "Milonga Del Angel," a hauntingly beautiful piece that showcases the orchestra's ability to create a mood and atmosphere. The delicate interplay between the strings and the bandoneón is particularly impressive.
