The Origin of the song ‘Oblivion’Īrgentine tango composer Astor Piazzolla created the piece ‘Oblivion’ in 1982. On September 6, 1987, his quintet gave a concert in New York’s Central Park, which was recorded and, in 1994, released in compact disc format as The Central Park Concert. In the summer of 1985 he performed at the Almeida Theatre in London for a week-long engagement. In 1984 he appeared with his Quinteto Tango Nuevo in West-Berlin, Germany and for television in Utrecht, Netherlands. Biographers estimate that Piazzolla wrote around 3,000 pieces and recorded around 500. His numerous compositions include orchestral work such as the Concierto para bandoneón, orquesta, cuerdas y percusión, Doble concierto para bandoneón y guitarra, Tres tangos sinfónicos and Concierto de Nácar para 9 tanguistas y orquesta, pieces for the solo classical guitar – the Cinco Piezas (1980), as well as song-form compositions that still today are well known by the general public in his country, including “Balada para un loco” (Ballad for a madman) and Adiós Nonino (dedicated to his father), which he recorded many times with different musicians and ensembles. He also recorded the album Summit (Reunión Cumbre) with jazz baritone saxophonist Gerry Mulligan. As well as providing original compositions and arrangements, he was the director and bandoneon player in all of them.
