About the Book

Astor Piazzolla, brilliant, iconoclastic tango musician and composer, has become a national hero in Argentina and a cult figure for classical and jazz lovers worldwide, but only after a lifetime of controversy and struggle.The outspoken, headstrong Piazzolla told his story to journalist and longtime fan Natalio Gorin in the spring of 1990 in a series of frank interviews.Among the firsthand observations of others who knew Piazzolla well are those of his lyricist Horacio Ferrer, his fellow musicians, and his colleagues. Translator Fernando Gonzalez, an Argentine native and American popular music critic who covered Piazzolla's career in the United States, has annotated the Amadeus edition for the widening audience that is rediscovering Astor Piazzolla.

About the Author :
Natalio Gorin has been a journalist with a focus on sports reporting for more than thirty years. He has worked for the daily Clarõn; the largest newspaper in the country; the sports magazine Goles; the entertainment monthly Radiolandia 2000; and El Grfico, a prestigious sports weekly for which he spent time as managing editor. His passion for music, especially for tango and most especially for Astor PiazzollaÆs music, led him into extensive investigations of the composerÆs life and work. They met in 1971 and were personal friends until PiazzollaÆs death in 1992. Gorin resides in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and frequently travels to give lectures and presentations on Piazzolla and his music.
