About

Violinist Augustin Hadelich, partnered by award-winning guitarist Pablo Sáinz Villegas, conjures a dark and sultry night of fiery, hot-blooded dancing on 'Histoire du Tango', featuring music by Falla, Paganini, Piazzolla and Sarasate.

In a short space of time, Augustin Hadelich has become one of the most respected and admired violinists of his generation. Two critically acclaimed and Billboard Classical Chart-topping releases for Avie, a string of major debuts with the likes of the New York Philharmonic, Boston Symphony, Cleveland Orchestra, Los Angeles Philharmonic, San Francisco, St Louis and National Symphony Orchestras, and the BBC Philharmonic, multiple awards including an Avery Fisher Career Grant and a Borletti-Butoni Trust Award, have resulted in major media coverage in The New Yorker, The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times, Philadelphia Inquirer, and classical-music.com, among many others, and an ever-widening and adoring fan base.

On 'Histoire du Tango', Augustin traces the history of Argentina's national dance in Piazzolla's title track, stirs up folk, gypsy and flamenco dances which inspired Falla's Popular Spanish Songs, and tosses off a fusillade of pyrotechnics in works by the pinnacles of 19th-century violin performance, Paganini and Sarasate.
