About this product

From time to time, the general idea gains currency that national anthems are nowadays an anachronism. According to the critics' arguments, these anthems were the product of a period of awakening nationalism. Today, however, there is wide endeavour to overcome narrow, national ways of thinking and acting, with the great aim of promoting the peaceful community and union of nations, to realize which should be the first principle for politicians all over the world. Criticism of this kind may surely be justified, considered from the standpoint of those seeking a United Europe. On the other hand we must not underestimate the sanctity accorded national anthems, carefully guarded symbols which enjoy the same respect and protection as national flags. They express love of the fatherland, pride in the native country, and trust in the nation. This is the reason for the sincerity with which people regard and sing their own national anthem, and the respect accorded to the anthems of other peoples. The solemn, dignified start and close of each official meeting between peoples divided by national borders is provided by national anthems. Yet when before have meetings between representatives of different nations been as frequent as today? Peoples meet at sporting events, at international youth gatherings, or at political conferences, heads of the states and delegations are received, cultural weeks and festivals are celebrated, and on such occasions the national anthems surely contribute to the understanding of other peoples, as well as offering the occasion for personal contact among individuals. Nothing, then, is more important in our time than mutual understanding, since misunderstandings and prejudices have in the past brought so much disaster to the nations of the world. Since publication of the CD-set Complete National Anthems of the World, Vols. 1-6 (Marco Polo 8.206001) in 1998,

Featuring the talents of Peter Breiner, Stano Paluch and Boris Lenko, an impressive mixture of the trio's violin, accordion and piano and tango. Contains Jazz improvisations and a taste of the Central European waltz, both playing based on a detailed research of sources but also on a maximum creativity where stylistic distance provides an extraordinary and observant insight, all the enriching the classical music of de Caro brothers, Villoldo, Gobbi and Piazzollo. On top of which there are here also their own themes in keeping with music composed of myths and beyond. As the choice of pieces and the style of playing demonstrate, the Triango is aware of the fact that not ambiguous cultural origins but passion and nostalgia together with melancholy are the substance of tango. This recording has been mastered by the new Ultra High Definition 32-Bit Mastering process, which creates an unbelievable sound surpassing other formats! Album Tracks 1. A Media Luz (In Half Light or the Light of Love) 2. El Choclo (The Ear of Corn) 3. By the Bank of River Su 4. Adios Muchachos (Goodbye, Boys) 5. La Cumparsita (The Little Parade) 6. Old Dream Lingers on 7. Caminito (Little Path) 8. Volver (To Return) 9. When Will You Come Again? 10. Melancolico 11. Orlando Gobbi 12. Maria 13. Adios Nonino (Farewell, Nonino) 14. Lo Que Vendra 15.
