Sérgio Assad, the renowned Brazilian guitarist and composer, delivers a captivating live performance with "Originis Live From Brazil," released on April 9, 2009, under NSS Music. This album is a testament to Assad's virtuosity and his deep connection to the tango genre, offering a rich and immersive experience that spans 55 minutes.
The album opens with "Concerto Originis," a five-movement suite that showcases Assad's compositional prowess and his ability to blend traditional Brazilian rhythms with classical structures. Each movement, from the lively "Tarantella" to the poignant "Modinha" and the triumphant "Finale," offers a unique glimpse into Assad's musical world.
Following this, Assad pays homage to his Argentine roots with "Tres Danzas Argentinas," a trio of tangos that evoke the spirit and passion of Argentina. The final three tracks, "Milonga Per Tre" and "Three Sketches," further highlight Assad's versatility, with the latter piece showcasing his innovative use of electronics in classical music.
"Ausencias," the album's closing track, is a hauntingly beautiful solo guitar piece that leaves a lasting impression. Throughout the album, Assad's technical brilliance and expressive playing shine, making "Originis Live From Brazil" a standout in his discography and a must-listen for fans of tango and classical guitar.
