Today's video is a rarely heard Piazzolla song, La vida pequeña, performed by Martin Alvarado and the quintet, Otra Vez. Lyrics are by Homero Expósito who collaborated with Piazzolla on at least three other pieces: Pigmaleon, La misma pena, and Menefrega. To my knowledge, Piazzolla never recorded La vida pequeña and the only references I find are to piano sheet music. Yet, the sound in this quintet is very close to a Piazzolla sound - even the guitar/bandoneon duet sounds as if Piazzolla arranged it. I am curious to know more.
