Pampa Blues

Composer and bandoneón virtuoso Denis Plante takes the helm of Tango Boréal (David Jacques - guitar and charango, Ian Simpson -double-bass) once again to offer sixteen new pieces. These musical travelogues were inspired by his wanderings from one end of the Americas to the other. Plante’s bandoneón deploys its impressionistic palette, and the tango is tinged with the blues. From pampa to taïga, he explores lands of open horizons, freedom and hope. Trio Tango Boréal’s first recording seduced critics and won the 2012 Opus Prize in the category Disc of the Year, World Music.
