Review by Kim

Tango Hora Cero, the iconic album by Astor Piazzolla Y Su Quinteto Nuevo Tango, is a timeless masterpiece that continues to captivate audiences worldwide. Released in 1986, the album features Piazzolla's signature blend of traditional Argentine tango with jazz and classical music.

The album opens with the title track, "Hora Cero," a high-energy piece that sets the tone for the rest of the album. The quintet's virtuosic playing is on full display, with Piazzolla's bandoneón leading the way. The album also includes slower, more introspective pieces such as "Milonga del Angel" and "Adiós Nonino," which showcase Piazzolla's emotional depth and his ability to evoke powerful emotions through his music.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "La Camorra," a three-part suite that features intricate rhythms and complex harmonies. The quintet's tight ensemble playing is particularly impressive on this track, as they seamlessly navigate the intricate arrangements.

Summary by Kim

Tango Hora Cero is a must-have for any fan of tango music or Astor Piazzolla. The album's innovative blend of genres and Piazzolla's virtuosic playing make it a timeless classic that will continue to inspire and delight listeners for generations to come.
