INVIERNO PORTENO by ASTOR PIAZZOLLA performed by the Mandolin Chambe
The Invierno Porteno (Winter) by Astor Piazzolla performed by the Dutch Mandolin Chamber Orchestra Het CONSORT conducted by Alex Timmerman, Amsterdam, March 20th at the 2010 Festival of the Dutch Mandolin Union. Astor Piazzolla (1921-1992) is especially known for being one of the greatest Argentinean bandonean performers. He started to play the bandoneon at a very early age and played when only thirteen years old with Carlos Gardél and his band. Once his extraordinary talent was discovered he joint the band of Anibal Tróila, the master of the classical tango. After Tróila´s death Piazzolla went to Paris to study with a government scholarship under Nadia Boulanger. Probably thanks to her Piazzolla became aware of the possibilities of the music of South America and, more particular, the tango music of his homeland Argentina. From this time Piazzolla´s reformed the traditional tango into a style that was called the 'tango nuevo'. Back in his homeland he was soon recognized the leading figure of the genre and it didn´t take long before his international breakthrough became a fact. In 1973 he moved again to Europe; this time to Italy where he started a recording project that took five years to complete. The Invierno Porteno (Winter) by Astor Piazzolla was composed in 1970 as the third Tango of the Cuatro Estaciones Porteñas also known as The Four Seasons of Buenos Aires. The other three Tangos in this cycle are Verano Porteño (1964 - Buenos Aires Summer), Otoño Porteño (1969 <b>...</b>

HE EMERGED FROM THE METRO AT THE L'ENFANT PLAZA STATION AND POSITIONED HIMSELF AGAINST A WALL BESIDE A TRASH BASKET. By most measures, he was nondescript: a youngish white man in jeans, a long-sleeved T-shirt and a Washington Nationals baseball cap. From a small case, he removed a violin. Placing the open case at his feet, he shrewdly threw in a few dollars and pocket change as seed money, swiveled it to face pedestrian traffic, and began to play.
It was 7:51 a.m. on Friday, January 12, the middle of the morning rush hour. In the next 43 minutes, as the violinist performed six classical pieces, 1,097 people passed by. Almost all of them were on the way to work, which meant, for almost all of them, a government job. L'Enfant Plaza is at the nucleus of federal Washington, and these were mostly mid-level bureaucrats with those indeterminate, oddly fungible titles: policy analyst, project manager, budget officer, specialist, facilitator, consultant.

Classical Medley by Buddy Greene on the Harmonica
SINCE PEOPLE KEEP ASKING, HERE ARE THE SONGS THAT HE PLAYED ACCORDING TO COMMENTERS:
1ST: 'Jesu, Joy Of Man's Desiring' by Johann Sebastian Bach.
2ND: Mozart's Piano Sonata in C, K. 545 - Allegro
3RD: Rossini's William Tell overture (known to most as the theme from 'The Lone Ranger')
WOW. He's so good on the harmonica!Buddy has talent pouring out from his ears. He also can sing, play the guitar, and he writes music (he wrote the music for 'Mary Did You Know') but he's most known for his Harmonica. Not to mention he is a really funny, cool guy.
