Fatma Said sings Yo Soy María (Piazzolla: María de Buenos Aires)

Soprano Fatma Said sings as the radiant María from Astor Piazzolla’s tango opera María de Buenos Aires in this selection from her album Kaleidoscope. Discover here: “There’s a reason – in fact many reasons – why Piazzolla chose the tango, his own natural mode of expression, to evoke the passion and truth behind a real love story: whatever the situation, the tango is always the release, an expression of the freedom a couple have often been denied in their lives. Tango leaves a lot of space for a woman to express herself – it’s a situation where a woman is not dependent on a man, and where she knows herself, her core – physically but also internally.“ – Fatma Said She has recorded this piece with the Quinteto Ángel, Heinrich Köbberling on drums and percussion, and Philip Krause on percussion.
