• Guitarist Stefan Grasse is fascinated by the expressiveness and sensuality of the tango nuevo, and particularly the work of Astor Piazzolla.

• On ‘Adios Nonino’ Grasse interprets nine Piazzolla compositions, accompanied by a trio including Tobias Kalitch on double bass and and Sandor Toth on percussion, plus a string quintet. In these new arrangements, Stefan Grasse dispenses with the typical bandoneon sound, preferring a jazzy tango bass, pulsating percussion and brilliant guitar solos, underpinned by the string section.

• Piazzolla took the tango tradition, which had originated in the bars, brothels and night clubs of Buenos Aires, and extended it by adding elements of jazz, bossa nova, flamenco and French Impressionism. His tango nuevo reflected extreme emotional breakthroughs and transformations: from abrupt, almost violent rhythm, to sentimental, even heartbreaking melancholy.
