Lowri Blake explores the history of well-known pieces of music. Astor Piazzolla brought the tango into the orchestral repertoire with his Bandoneon Concerto. Lowri tells the story of the man who composed around 3,000 tangos. Featured performers include bandoneon virtuoso Per Arne Glorvigen, who demonstrates the versatility and expressiveness of this giant among squeezeboxes.
