Program NotesVigor, energy and a strong pulsation are the basic elements of this tango. The second part allows for the theme and variations form, inviting the soloists to perform solos, duets and different instrumental combinations. The whole piece, which came to my mind in Iceland, was a tribute to Buenos Aires suburbs, where the city almost meets the countryside.
