Over het album

POESÍA
A dream comes true, CUARTETO SOLTANGO negotiated for a long time with the star Tango singer LEONEL CAPITANO until he came to Munich for the production - a co-production with Bayerischer Rundfunk.

Arranger and pianist Martin Klett and Leonel Capitano have put together 16 tangos in different styles of famous Tango composers. There are famous styles and their founders: Aníbal Troilo, Osvaldo Puglieses, Horacio Salgán, Oswaldo Tarrantino. Elías Randal, Virgilio Exposíto, Acho Manzi, Sebastián Piana etc. provide the music.

The lyricists are also genuine South Americans and have written popular, sometimes very human lyrics, which also repeatedly emphasise the social aspects.

The intoxicating sound of these pieces of music, two of them instrumental, makes the rhythm go straight to your feet, a feast for the ears of the highest order.
