Tango Nuevo is the first release for guitarist Tali Roth on the Laughing Buddha label. The album features music of Astor Piazzolla arranged for Guitar, Violin and Acoustic Bass. Passionate playing and the infectious Tango rhythms highlight this impressive release from a rising star and her talented ensemble.
The Israeli born Ms. Roth is joined by two celebrated Argentineans, Pablo Aslan on bass and Humberto Ridolfi on violin, who bring with them their extensive expertise and fluidity in their native art of Tango. The arrangements and performances on this album are new and exciting and executed with uncompromised passion and exceptional musicianship. Classical guitarist Tali Roth has been hailed by Classical Guitar Magazine as an "extraordinary chamber and solo musician". Since her Carnegie Hall debut with the Juilliard Orchestra, she has performed as a soloist throughout the United States, Europe, Latin America and her native Israel, appearing in such venues as Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center's Alice Tully Hall (with violinist Midori), the Caramoor Center, the Aspen Music Festival, the Tel Aviv Henry Crown Hall, and Teatro Presidente in San Salvador with the El Salvador National Symphony Orchestra. In addition to her solo recitals, Ms. Roth has performed in a variety of settings - as an ensemble player, on live television and radio in the U.S. and abroad, on stage in the New York Off-Broadway musical production of Nobel Laureate Derek Walcott's The Odyssey, by invitation for the U.N. in Washington, and for dignitaries such as former Prime Minister Shimon Peres, Prime Minister Ehud Barak, and General Colin Powell. Among her prizes and awards are Top Prize in all categories at the Twenty-Third Masterplayers Music and Conductors Competition in Switzerland, First Prize in the Israeli National Guitarist Competition, and the New York Artist International Competition Award. Ms. Roth studied with Joseph Urshalmi at the Jerusalem Rubin Academy and subsequently with Sharon Isbin at the Juilliard School, where she earned her Master of Music degree. She has also trained at the Accademia Chigiana in Sienna, Italy and the Cologne Academy in Germany, studying under Oscar Ghiglia and Hubert Käppel, respectively. Tali Roth has been an instructor at the Aspen Music Festival, teaches regularly in the Guitar Department of The Juilliard School's Pre-College Division, is currently a faculty member of the American Institute of Guitar in New York City, and frequently presents master classes in the U.S., Europe and Latin America.
