Premium Bandoneon Replacement Parts - High-Quality Accordion Components for Tango & Folk Music | Perfect for Repairs & Maintenance

The bandoneon (band-un-yoan) is among the most neglected of instruments. Even a theramin can be purchased new. If you want a bandoneon, you must go to Buenos Aires (the AA is the best.) Astor Piazzola composed for them, played one himself, and yet people today programming concerts of his music often try to use an accordian or eliminate the bandoneon's part altogether. How great it is then to hear new music from a talented composer and musician, Evan Lurie along with Alfredo Pedenera, one of today's great bandoneon players, a man schooled in tango bars in Buenos Aires, Monte Video and New York. One can listen to this CD over and over--and should. Lance B.
