Listen to Lengua al viento: Stanton Street Duo plays Astor Piazzolla
The husband and wife duo of Alan R. Lopez and Tatiana Senderowicz pen a love letter to the composer Astor Piazzolla via these cultured and enlightening 10 songs.
“Libertango” opens with a distinct rhythm and plenty of friskiness, and “Midnight Tango Pursuit” follows with a sense of cautiousness thanks to the warm guitar and soulful harmonica.
Halfway through, “Lengua al viento” moves gently with emotion and intimacy, while “Piazzollarmonica” allows for Lopez’s mouth acrobatics on harmonica to shine with much playfulness.
Arriving near the end, “Cafe 1930” emits poeticism and grace due to the pair’s rich talents, and “Yo soy Maria” follows with a fluid melody thanks to the meticulous guitar and colorful harmonica.
A really enlightening listen that explores tango, Latin and classical ideas, every moment comes with respect to Piazzolla’s vision and is executed superbly.
