Dino Saluzzi / Anja Lechner: Ojos Negros
by Budd Kopman
What is beauty? What does it mean to feel, to remember, to laugh or to cry? How can music sound both created beforehand and recreated each second? Is music a direct connection to the infinite, to our very ground of being, so we can see into the musician's soul? These and many, many ...
Dino Saluzzi / Anja Lechner: Ojos Negros
by John Kelman
The late Astor Piazolla was undeniably responsible for bringing visibility to the bandoneon and widespread acclaim to the tango form. Over the course of the past quarter century, however, it's been Piazolla's fellow countryman Dino Saluzzi who has directed the instrument towards paths unseen. Over the course of nine ECM releases Saluzzi has explored the instrument's ...

Dino Saluzzi Group: Juan Condori
by Budd Kopman
Juan Condori is one of most heartfelt and deeply moving releases you will come across. It is about remembrance--of childhood, people and place, of things lost and regained, of relationships, of a life lived fully, with intent. It actually does not matter what label you give this music, but if you must, let ...
Dino Saluzzi Group: Juan Condori
by Robert R. Calder
Juan Condori is useful if you want to find out how Dino Saluzzi, born 1935, a slightly younger veteran bandoneonist, sounds relative to Astor Piazzolla--not only is the setting comparable, but the music made by this family group is well worth hearing anyway. Saluzzi has the more lyrical turn of phrase, and the band has a ...
Dino Saluzzi Group: Juan Condori
by John Kelman
Anyone still laboring under the misapprehension that there's an “ECM sound" need only look at the live film score retrospective of Greek composer Eleni Karaindrou's Elegy of the Uprooting, the improvisational classicism of French pianist François Couturier's Nostalghia--Song for Tarkovsky and Argentinean bandoneonist Dino Saluzzi's Juan Condori--all released on the same day. These three recordings couldn't ...

Dino Saluzzi: Senderos
by Dennis Hollingsworth
The bandoneon, long associated with the tango music of Argentina, is a relative of the German koncertina. Both are bellows and button instruments which produce their sounds via metal reeds. The great Argentinean composer Astor Piazzolla had the largest impact in lifting the bandoneon from the dance hall to the concert stage. Dino Saluzzi began his ...
Dino Saluzzi: Senderos
by John Kelman
The idea of nearly eighty minutes of bandoneon/percussion duets can appear somewhat daunting. On the other hand, the bandoneon is a full-range instrument, and nobody seems to bat an eye at piano/drums duets like Italian pianist Enrico Pieranunzi's recent encounter with drummer Paul Motian, Doorways. Still, one wonders whether or not such a concentrated dose would ...
