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

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 ...

Dino Saluzzi: Responsorium
by Elliott Simon
A sincere presentation of deep cultural roots within a modern context, Responsorium envelops the listener with its honesty, warmth and deep textures. The bandoneon, a button accordion that is closer in timbre to an organ, has a rich sonority that is capable of creating a powerfully arresting soundscape. In the hands of Argentinian master Dino Saluzzi, ...
Dino Saluzzi: Responsorium
by AAJ Staff
For all of its relative obscurity, the bandoneon occupies a very important place in musical history. To novice ears, the instrument sounds something like an accordion, though it is markedly softer and warmer, with more timbral color. In physical appearance it resembles the concertina--a slinky bellow instrument with 70 buttons. But when it comes ...
