4 out of 5 stars Piazzolla brazillian version.......2007-05-18

Only Astor Piazzolla could equal himself. A bandoneon virtuoso playing his own works, nobody could do better than him. However Four Seasons of Buenos Aires deserves a place of honour in the cd collection of Piazzolla's fans.

1 out of 5 stars Bland music.......2007-05-07

I heard this piece at a concert and loved it. However, this recording had none of the fire and passion of the concert. I returned it.

5 out of 5 stars Master piece.......2005-12-29

The right balance between classical, popular, contemporany music this CD is a fascinating interpretation of Piazzolla best works in a Brazilian way bringing together some of its best talented musicians.
The extraordinary performances of Rio Cello Trio and the Orquestra de Cordas Brasileiras makes this CD unforgettable.

4 out of 5 stars Don't Be Fooled.......2005-03-05

Milan Records owns the rights to a lot of the later Piazzolla canon, and since his death has steadily been mining its holdings with a number of CD reissues and compilations that are readily identified as Milan's by the similarity of the cover art used. Don't be fooled by the Four Seasons of Buenos Aires, however. While it is a fine recording, Piazzolla does not appear on it as anything but the composer.
I didn't read the back of the CD cover before I bought it and so when I opened it, I was surprised to find that the cover had fooled me into thinking Piazzolla was featured. I played it anyway, prepared for the worst, as many offerings of Piazzolla compositions turn out mediocre at best. At first, it seemed like my fears were confirmed, but after several listens I warmed to the music.
Those familiar with AP's "Four Seasons" sequence know that they are among the most classically oriented of his works and have only the slightest connection to tango. But they also know that when performed by Piazzolla and one of his musical formations, that they are among the most powerful of his longer works. Anyone taking on the task of interpretation had better know well what the heck they are doing or risk making musical fools of themselves.
This interpretation of the "Four Seasons" is done by a Brazilian orchestra that in my view started rather weakly. It isn't until "winter" (Invierno Porteno) was reached that the power and majesty of the music comes to fruition.
From there on out, the rest of the CD is quite good. My favorites of the remainder are the three parts of the "Libertango" sequence that they performed and which features some excellent mandolin work and Deus Xango, which closes the recording with a jazzy rendering oddly reminiscent of some of the old CTI-era jazz recordings.
The weakness of the start drops a star, but its the rest of the recording which puts this in the recommended category for anyone who loves the music of Astor Piazzolla.

5 out of 5 stars Superb collection.......2004-05-04

Superb collection of Piazzolla's 'new tango': four ear-bending modern arrangements followed by an array of traditional performances. Because of its versatility and constant quality, this disc easily lets itself play from start to end and over again. Four seasons for the ear indeed.

5 out of 5 stars It's the best for my heart.......2007-06-27

Maybe it is not a perfect recording,
maybe you can find some poor sound quality (not about play itself),
But it's the best play for my soul.
I think it's the cure for your sadness. Not for happy people.

2 out of 5 stars disappointing.......2006-06-28

Such a title should deserve better quality... Other CDs of Piazzolla are much better.

5 out of 5 stars Beautiful beautiful!.......2006-03-02

I am not a music connoisseur, but I do love Piazzolla, and I like Saxophone. I think the way the two are combined in this CD is absolutely wonderful. Piazzolla's compositions are the "usual" ones, but believe me, Mondelci's sax rendition is just outstanding. This is wonderful music for your thoughts and your senses. Highly highly recommended. If you are in doubt, do listen to the music samples on Amazon, but remember that the sound quality of in the CD is way superior to that allowed by the short samples. Too bad I can only find another 2-3 CDs by Mondelci.

5 out of 5 stars Lovely, lovely listening.......1999-08-10

Oh, no! I thought when yet another tango CD came my way for review. Well, I should have thought Oh, yes! The Delos label seldom disappoints and their new by Piazzolla (DE 3252) is quite lovely. Here we have Saxophonist Federico Mondelci and the Moscow Chamber Orchestra under Constantine Orbelian in a program of 12 arrangements (mostly by the soloist) of tangos by Astor Piazzolla, mostly on the moody side, but all a welcome relief from the barrage of atonal bangings on one side and the tuneless mediocrities that pass for popular and show music today. A good deal of this will remind you of "Nights in the Gardens of Spain" and other earlier works that capture the sultriness of the Spanish climate and mindset. I highly recommend this Delos offering.
