On his new album “Piazzolla 100”, violinist Rudens Turku, some of his musical friends and the W”urttemberg Chamber Orchestra Heilbronn celebrate the Argentine musician and composer Astor Piazzolla: The South American tango revolutionary would have celebrated his 100th birthday this year. Rudens Turku is the ideal soloist for his complex and gripping compositions. Gramophone praises his seriousness and musical intelligence: “Rudens Turku displays a fiery zeal, seriousness of purpose and clear-headed intelligence….”
In conversation, one phrase recurs: “sinking into the tone.” The violinist RUDENS TURKU uses it to underline what he is particularly concerned with: to penetrate into the deep layers of a composition while keeping the composer’s life story and its embedding in a time and its political background present. The music of Astor Piazzolla – concertante music of a cosmopolitan Argentinean with Italian ancestors who grew up in the USA – offers him very special opportunities for this.
Together with the W”urttemberg Chamber Orchestra and musical friends such as the outstanding Dutch accordion and bandoneon player Carel Kraayenhof, the pianist Oliver Schnyder, the cellist Benjamin Nyffenegger or Dominik Wagner on bass, he interprets the great and well-known Piazzolla pieces such as Libertango, Milonga del ‘angel, Oblivion or Adios Nonino in partly new, colorful and cleverly set arrangements.
Rudens Turku: ”This music breathes and gives us musicians the freedom to reinvent Piazzolla’s style with sensuality and rhythm in unusually cast ensembles.”
