His oeuvre revolutionized the traditional tango into a new style termed nuevo tango, incorporating elements from jazz and classical music. A virtuoso bandoneónist, he regularly performed his own compositions with a variety of ensembles. Astor Piazzolla&Oblivion was composed in 1982 as a chamber ensemble. This piece was one of Astor Piazzolla&most famous Tangos, and it became mostly popular when it was released on the soundtrack of Marco Bellochio&film Henry IV, the Mad King. It&one of the most famous Tango work ever done by Astor Piazzolla, and remains one of his best.Astor Piazzolla&Oblivion is one of the tangos that he wrote with almost no jazz or rock influence, like most other of his pieces from that time. It is a piece that is very true to the original Tango, and Piazzolla keeps it at its roots. It has a bit of harmonic sophistication and elegance, and it sings a beautiful song of Tango and emotion.
