About the Composition
Was composed by Astor Piazzolla as a tribute to the double bass player Enrique Kicho Díaz. Kicho was Piazzolla's bassist in the Quintet New Tango from 1960 to 1977.
Notes From the Arranger
Speaking from Kicho Díaz is necessary to mention the three brothers Díaz, David, José and Enrique. David was violinist, José and Enrique bassists.
José was the Oswaldo Pugliese Orchestra double bass and the Anibal Troilo Orchestra too. Was the first influence on Enrique, in the future Kicho. Kicho played guitar and bandoneon, but his brother José influenced him to play the double bass, and here starts the history of the famous Kicho Díaz.
Please Note this arrangement is for 2 Violins, Viola, Cello, and Double Bass. Watch a performance here.
