Soul of the Tango: The Music of Astor Piazzolla

Soul of the Tango: The Music of Astor Piazzolla is an album by cellist Yo-Yo Ma, released in 1997. It presents interpretations of Astor Piazzolla's nuevo tango that pair Ma's classical cello technique with tango rhythms and chamber textures, and it marks a point in his crossover repertoire where he engaged directly with 20th-century tango repertoire and its place in classical performance contexts.
