Great Tango Concert On Luxury Cruise Ship Europa - Germanyby Douglas Ward |
 |
 The "Isabelle van Keulen & Tango Nuevo Classical Music Ensemble" were seen and heard aboard the superb small 408-passenger luxury cruise ship Europa recently, giving a chamber concert of Astor Piazzolla tangos. The ensemble consists of international stars Isabelle van Kuelen (violin) Christian Gerber (bandoneon), Ruediger Ludwig (double bass) and Ulrike Payer (piano), all of them equally outstanding virtuoso musicians that play together as one. Accordionist/composer Douglas Ward was on a cruise in October 2015. He says that he has "never heard a bandoneon player as brilliant and as emotionally expressive as Christian Gerber since meeting and listening to Astor Piazzolla himself, in New York many years ago. The technical virtuosity and musical interpretation of this ensemble is simply the best." The ensemble released a CD entitled ‘Grand Tango’ in June 2015 which can be found on the ensemble’s website and the internet. Compositions by the author are available online at: Douglas Ward |
