Natasa Popovic, a professor at the Music Academy in Cetinje, said that it was challenging to work on this project, but also that her heart was full during the evening, reports the PR Center. “We who deal with classical music have experienced Piazzollo somehow superficially. When we got into this whole story, I did more research and somehow fell in love with this man. This is a person who has given incredible energy to improve music and tango. I especially liked the moment, and I didn’t know it before, that he loved classical music and that he studied the scores of top composers. The thorny path he had to reach this result is really worthy of all respect, “said Popović. She explained that what Piazzolla did with classical music is best felt in his work “Four Seasons in Buenos Aires”, in which he “enriched and changed the harmonic language”. “He used elements of jazz and blues music, the modernist language of classical music.
