ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THIS PERFORMANCE
The Misa a Buenos Aires, known as Misatango, is a setting of the mass in Latin by Martín Palmeri. The music uses the style of the nuevo tango and its typical instrumentation, scored for mezzo-soprano, mixed choir and an ensemble of bandoneon, piano and strings. The world premiere was on 17 August 1996 at the Avenida Theatre in Buenos Aires. It has been performed and recorded internationally, often with the composer as the pianist, and is regarded as his signature work.
The Latin text of the mass is divided in six movements:
Gloria
Credo
Sanctus
Benedictus
Agnus Dei
The work takes around 40 minutes to perform. The composition uses the melodic style, rhythms and instrumentation of the nuevo tango, following the model of Astor Piazzolla, but includes elements from the history of church music, such as extended fugues in the opening and closing movements.
