Astor Piazzolla : Milonga del Angel (Piano music)

Astor Piazzolla (1921-92) was an Argentina tango composer, bandoneon player, and arranger. His works revolutionised the traditional tango into a new style termed nuevo tango, incorporating elements from jazz and classical music. Piazzolla wrote this slow tango - Milonga del Angel (Dance of the Angel) in 1965, for his own Tango Nuevo jazz quintet of accordion, violin, electric guitar, piano, and acoustic bass. It’s the second of his four Angel pieces.
