About us
After many requests to play Astor Piazzolla music I decided to make a research on his art.
I could play only one his composition-Liber-tango.
I found his website www.piazzolla.org and learned from it that he composed more than 1000 compositions.
Most of his music was written for quintet-Bandoneon, Violin, Guitar, Piano and Doble Bass.
Astor Piazzolla played himself on Bandoneon, which is similar to Accordion(one of 15 registers produces exactly the same sound).
I could not find much scores for Accordion Solo.
I realized that there is actualy no proper arrangements for Accordion Solo and Duo Accordions of his music.
Two reasons drove me to do it.
1. Requests for his music;
2. Many people told me that they would like to learn to play Accordion because they want to play Astor Piazzolla music.
I was surprised that why nobody arranged it during Astor Piazzolla's lifetime.
I bought the original scores from A. Pagani,(Italy) www.apagani.it , from Tonos(Germany) and many others and recordings from different shops.
My idea was to make it as close as possible to the original!
What was played by 5 people to arrange for Accordion Solo or Duo Accordions it was a main task.
I listened the recordings with the scores and have done it!
What you will have as it is - 5 in 1!
Now all these compositions in my repertoire!
Please, note that all scores arranged in 4/4 time signature for easy reading!
Also, I am working now on a project to make a simple versions of his compositions!
I hope you will like it and enjoy to play it!
I am arranging different music for Accordion as well and take requests to do it.
All the best
