Rough Guide to Tango Nuevo
This collection features the best exponents ofAstor Piazzolla's jazz,  classical, and rock-influenced Tango Nuevo genre. Therock en Espanolsuperstar Omar Mollo shows off his grungy pipes on "Nostalgias," but  "Lejana Tierra Mia" and "Discepolín" by femaletanguerasSandra  Luna and Patricia Andrade prove that the music is no longer a man's game.BandoneonmasterDino Saluzzidelivers a  pensive pampa mood on "Reprise: Los Hijos de Fierro," contrasted by the  urban, club remix of Carlos Libedinsky's "Vi Luz y Subín." "Toca Tango" byJuan Carlos Caceresdances with Afro-Uruguayancandombeandmurgarhythms. Pianist  Adrian Iaies ingeniously drops some jazzy Bill Evans licks on the swinging  Piazzolla tune "Decarísimo," and another of the maestro's compositions,Milonga Del  Angel, is brilliantly updated by Quinteto La Camorra for the  21st century.--Eugene Holley, Jr.
