Visit: https://www.facebook.com/ThomasGouldV... http://www.thomasgould.com/ Performed with BBC National Orchestra of Wales conducted by Clark Rundell: Oblivion was composed by Ástor Piazzolla (1921--1992) who was an Argentine tango composer, bandoneon player and arranger. His oeuvre revolutionized the traditional tango into a new style termed nuevo tango, incorporating elements from jazz and classical music. A virtuoso bandoneonist, he regularly performed his own compositions with a variety of ensembles. In 1992, American music critic Stephen Holden described Piazzolla as "the world's foremost composer of tango music."
