专辑介绍

Carlos Saura's film Tango, which earned an Academy Award nomination for Best Foreign Film in 1999, immerses itself thoroughly in the ethos of the tango, exploring the complex mix of flirtation, violence, lust, and beauty it expresses; its place in the cultural and political history of Argentina; and the interaction between life and art that occurs in the process of bringing it to the stage. It is not surprising, then, that the soundtrack provides a wide ranging summary of tango music that runs the gamut of its history. In addition to excerpts from the original score by six-time Oscar nominee Lalo Schifrin, it contains Creole waltzes, milongas, and tangos from throughout Argentina's history that were recorded by Schifrin in the style of the originals. Some are familiar classics, like &La Comparsita,& &El Choclo,& and &Caminito.& Others are definitive pieces by major Argentine composers. There are too many highlights to mention, but among the brightest are the jaunty &Calambre& by concertina legend Astor Piazzola (for whom Schifrin once played piano), the virtuoso guitar and concertina performances on &Nostalgias,& and the forcefully rhythmic Osvaldo Pugliese compositions &La Yumba& and &Recuerdo.& Balance is provided by the soundtrack's one vocal track, &Flores Del Alma,& a delightfully rapid Creole waltz sung by Viviana Vigil and Hector Pilatti. But the best material may be Schifrin's original work. His &Tango Del Atardercer,& heard at the beginning and end of the CD, mimics Pugliese by melding powerful bass piano chords with soaring strings and playful concertina solos. Sensuality, aggression, danger, love, flirtation -- it brings together the disparate emotional elements that provide such sharp contrast both to the tango itself and to Saura's gorgeous film.
