Adapted and orchestrated by Charles Heiden
Written in 1999 at the invitation of Eugene Symphony Orchestra conductor Miguel Harth-Bedoya for his innovative program Tango Lesson, which also featured tangos by Piazzolla, Gardel and Stravinsky, this piece blends tango style with elements of klezmer music. It can be heard on the Arrieu Wind Quintet CD World Tour.
