Astor Piazolla (1921-1992) was the father of the modern tango (nuevo tango) taking it from the bordello to the concert hall. He is its' greatest composer and a stunning virtuoso on the bandoneon (accordian, to you and me). These performance clips feature Piazolla with his quintet and in an orchestral setting, performing his most famous composition, Adios Nonino (Farewell, Father).
