Description:
This new Argentinian tango jazz release by the internationally acclaimed pianist, composer and band leader Pablo Ziegler is his first recording since his successful Sony and BMG releases of the 1990s. Recorded in Germany in 2002, it features Argentinian guitarist Quique Sinesi and Walter Castro on bandoneon. Ziegler has been described as the most important artist of the "tango nuevo," and he's the great Astor Piazzolla's legitimate successor. On "Bajo Cero," Ziegler a veteran of the vibrant Buenos Aires jazz scene, explores the common ground between tango, South America's most sultry and passionate music, and jazz. Highlights include several Ziegler originals, and compositions by Astor Piazzolla. |
