Reviewed 2004-04-08
A rich mix of jazz, tango, and modern classical music (like it says on the back). Ranges from lighthearted (7) to serious (6,10). Nicely accessible with a European kind of "world" music sound. Good stuff.

1- Midtempo, w/fast jazzy segment
2- Near-Flamenco, slowish and rolling
3- Spiky piano, mid/fast. Big and dramatic later
4- Tango! Mid/fast w/high singing violin
5- Slow and dramatic
6- A slower tango with Philip Glass influence
7- Mid/fast rolling, with country fiddle
8- Bass interlude. Athletic.
9- Slowly stormy and wild. Starts spiky.
10- Slow and delicate, lots of classical influence
11- Another Philip Glass tango. Lighthearted minor key
