Virtuoso Performance

Featuring soloist, Gennaro Desiderio, this video is a real treat. Desiderio provides the most aggressive and creative solo interpretation of Libertango that I have ever seen. The opening credenza is breathtaking. A virtuosic performance which, if it was not the encore to a great concert, should have been. Desiderio is a little loose with the pitch here and there but so is Yo-Yo Ma and no one complains.

This one is a candidate for video on the month on my Piazzolla Video website.
