With "Libertango," the ensemble dives deep into the sensualintensity of the tango, merging lush string arrangements with the haunting, voice-like timbre ofthe theremin - resulting in a soundscape that is both timeless and avant-garde."Piazzolla revolutionized tango by blending it with jazz and classical music," says ManoDivina. "With Libertango, we wanted to honor his spirit of innovation - using the theremin notas a novelty, but as a voice that sings, weeps, and dances.""Libertango" serves as the lead single from the upcoming album 7 Tangos, a compelling tributeto Piazzolla's genius. The album is structured with three classic tangos on Side A, and threenuevo tangos on Side B, separated by a striking duet reinterpretation. Each piece remains faithfulto Piazzolla's original compositions while being transformed through Divine Hand Ensemble'sdistinctive instrumentation - substituting, for example, one violin with five, or a single pianowith dual harps. The result is a sound that honors the past while boldly reimagining it.The album includes seven of Piazzolla's authentic works - from universally celebrated favoriteslike "Libertango" and "Adiós Nonino," to lesser-known gems such as "Chiquilín de Bachín"and the haunting "12 Monkeys.""My musicians poured their hearts into this recording," says Mano. "As a lifelong Piazzolladevotee, I believe we've created something truly special - versions that are, in some cases, asbeautiful or perhaps even more moving than any I've heard."
