Tango Final by Astor Piazzolla - arranged and performed by Jerry Weir

Jerry Weir 30 March 2024
Tango Final is a less well-known Piazzolla composition that was used in the French film Famille d’Artistes. For the soundtrack of this 1989 movie, the piece was performed by a trio led by accordionist Richard Galliano. My arrangement of Tango Final is the least challenging of the pieces in this collection but fun to play and very romantico.

Oblivion by Astor Piazzolla - arranged and performed by Jerry Weir

Jerry Weir 30 March 2024
A beautiful piece that has been used many times by figure skaters in the Olympics. It is one of Piazzolla’s most popular and haunting pieces. Piazzolla’s recording with full orchestra is the source for my arrangement. Oblivion should flow gently without becom­ing bogged down. Be expressive and romantic.

Let me start this off by telling you an interesting story about chess players.  You guys might know the story already. There are chess players who can play anywhere from 2 to 100 games at the same time blindfolded and remember each board of all the games. Chess players can recall games from years ago and play through them showing you all the moves onboth sides.
