─ 馬可‧亞伯涅堤／薩克斯風
─ 義大利愛樂樂團

馬可.亞伯涅堤寫道: `阿瑪柯德`意味著回憶, 重現懷念的過去. 這種懷舊在這張專輯中引起結合薩克斯風與手風琴兩種樂器的想法, 兩者都是在十九世紀中被發明的. 在德國的神聖音樂世界中, 手風琴是為了比管風琴更輕巧靈活的替代品而創造, 之後被德國移民帶到布宜諾斯艾利斯, 變成探戈音樂的核心部分, 探戈是一種源自非洲的節奏概念並與舞蹈密切關聯. 薩克斯風 – 是一個從比利時開始的冒險故事的核心角色, 然後此樂器旅行到美國並找到其應許之地(the promised land) – 以一種輕快, 柔和的和一種更加深感情的聲調演奏探戈柔美的旋律. (阿瑪柯德的探戈世界)是為了提供聽眾們一個短暫的探戈歷史之旅而創作. 皮羅多(Angel Villodo)的(玉米穗El choclo)寫於1903年, 是此曲目類別中最古老的範例. 最著名的探戈旋律(一步之差 Por una cabeza)和( 她閉上眼睛Sus ojos se cerraron)是在1935年悲劇性墜機意外身亡的偉大歌星卡洛斯.葛戴爾(Carlos Gardel)所寫. 這張還包含一個在皮亞佐拉逝世三十週年紀念的致敬. 這專輯以他的(勝利 Triunfal)做開頭 - 歸功於娜迪亞.布蘭潔(Nadia Boulanger) - 此曲造成意識覺醒並促進皮亞佐拉在"新探戈"中的徹底變化. 它代表一個理想的旅途出發點.

Marco Albonetti writes: "Amarcord” signifies memory, the nostalgic re-enactment of the past. Here, it evokes the idea of joining two instruments, the saxophone and the bandoneon, both of which were invented in the middle of the nineteenth century. The bandoneon, created as a more agile substitute for the organ in the world of sacred music in Germany, was brought by German immigrants to Buenos Aires, where it became central to the tango, a music enlivened by rhythmic ideas from Africa and inextricably linked to dance. The saxophone – the central character of an adventure story which originated in Belgium, from which the instrument travelled to America where it discovered its promised land – executes the mellow melodies of the tango with a lightness, a pliancy, and a tone that further intensify the feelings running through them. Amarcord d`un Tango was created to offer the listener a brief journey through the history of the tango. Composed in 1903, Villoldo`s El choclo is one of the oldest examples of the genre. The well-known melodic tangos Por una cabeza and Sus ojos se cerraron are by the great singer Carlos Gardel, who died tragically in a plane accident, in 1935. I include a homage to Astor Piazzolla, on the thirtieth anniversary of his death. The album opens with his Triunfal, the piece that, thanks to Nadia Boulanger, created awareness and spurred the metamorphosis of Piazzolla`s “nuevo tango”. It represents the ideal point of embarkation.`
