Spring flowers, summer heat, winter wind and even autumn colors... After Vivaldi, Astor Piazzolla, the master of Argentine tango, also did the same with The Four Seasons of Buenos Aires: a beautiful tribute to his predecessor.

 

In 2021, we celebrate the centenary of Astor Piazzolla's birth! Tonight, jazz and tango will be played by pianist Gustavo Beytelmann, who himself played with the Argentinean composer.
