Rastrelli Cello Quartet - "Cello in Buenos Aires»

This is the fourth album of the quartet Russian cellist who live in Germany, and with varying success prepares a variety of musical styles - from jazz to pop ballads. Now - nuevotango genius Astor Piazzolla. Musicians deliberately use only their own arrangements. Sometimes it works well, sometimes not. In this case, they had no traditional bandoneon and guitar tones that are in each band to do the Argentine tango. But will not be treated without a piano, and was invited to write an American pianist Ann Barnes. Rastrelli Cello Quartet - "Cello in Buenos Aires" by Astor Piazzolla The Four Seasons of Buenos Aires is one of the late creative period maestro, and no doubt of his desire, the classic tango music scene back motivated - hence the complex compositional solutions and lack shlyagernyh melodies. The album from 1997, which was published after the death of Piazzolla sounds rather prim. One of the peaks of the implementation of the four-part work (summer, autumn, winter, spring) is a violinist Gidon Kremer recording with the orchestra Kremerata Baltica, and arranging for Kremer composer Leonid Desyatnikov. Version Sergey Drabkin to Rastrelli Cello Quartet comes from the need to replace the Bass Cello, and there are no complications were not. Solo Cello Party also given, and then, just to find the problem. No violin and cello not adequately replace nervous rhythm bandoneon. Therefore, the orchestra sounds very impressive in quiet passages, but obviously slowed down if you need to open a passion. With passion certainly talented musicians Rastrelli Cello Quartet has shown at all certain deficit with their second album 'cello in jazz "(2005). Tango is a critical error. In addition to the "seasons", the album included two plays Piazzolla Oblivion and Adios Nonino. They are much more melodic and lively, and the Rastrelli Cello Quartet are a godsend. Musicians clearly gravitating to entertainment venerable public suddenly come to life and superior results. There are living breath, emotions, and almost drive. Perhaps more interesting for the ensemble would be to restrict certain popular pieces, rather than on the monumental "The Seasons." After all, she had previously received the same Piazzolla Milonga del Angel, and very impressive. Score: 6 out of 10. Vadim Ponomarev, NEWSmusic.ru CD.
