Argentijnse Tango - arrangementen en composities voor solo piano
Binnenkort zal ik hier bladmuziek diverse arrangementen en evt. composities plaatsen in het genre Argentijnse Tango.
De stukken variëren qua speelniveau en uiteraard ook stijlen binnen de Argentijnse Tango.
Omdat er nog steeds weinig solo piano materiaal beschikbaar is, dat echt de "heart and soul" van Argentijnse Tango laat spreken, heb ik besloten om vanuit mijn zeer lange ervaring met Argentijnse Tango (als componist, arrangeur en pianist) een bijdrage hieraan te leveren, uiteraard tegen schappelijke prijzen. :-D
In mijn biografie kunt u zien dat ik o.a. met Carel Kraayenhof en Leo Vervelde heb gespeeld. Dit zijn natuurlijk de grote namen in Nederland als het om Argentijnse Tango gaat. Al bijna 20 jaar geef ik ook les aan Codarts, Hogeschool voor de Kunsten in de afdeling Argentijnse Tango.
