From Venice to Buenos Aires

Andres Gabetta, Veronica Cangemi, Mario Stefano Pietrodarch

Format: Digital

Andrés Gabetta (violin & conductor), Veronica Cangemi (soprano), Mario Stefano Pietrodarchi (bandoneon and accordion) and the Gabetta Consort present "From Venice to Buenos Aires", a remarkable journey from 18th-century Venice to the streets of Buenos Aires. With the dizzying concerti of Antonio Vivaldi and the fiery passion of Astor Piazzolla's "María de Buenos Aires", the album follows Italian music through centuries and continents. Luca Salvadori's imaginative compositions, including the commissioned works "Overture: Tango Baroque" and "Mater Maria", weave Baroque structures with nuevo tango rhythms and create a breathtaking dialogue between old and new. The album is a tribute to women, with Maria as the central theme. From the violin concerto dedicated to Anna Maria to Piazzolla's arias written for female voices and the moving works of Luca Salvadori, the album celebrates the female presence, strength and artistry through time and style. The recording also contains operatic gems by Giovanni Bononcini and Leonardo Vinci as well as Piazzolla's expressive arias, from the challenging "Yo soy María" to a tender "Ave Maria" arranged for violin, bandoneon and soprano. "From Venice to Buenos Aires" is a lively, engaging exploration of the power of music to tell stories across worlds - where sacred and secular, past and present collide in timeless and captivating melodies.
