Oblivion
By Astor Piazzolla

Played this arrangement at recital in June. It is much different than the ones you will hear on the internet. I liked it. Lots of syncopation and "lifts" which really set the lead instrument out. Arrangement really plays with the anticipation of the listener when played with the piano part...

. The difference starts right at the start in measure 2 with "quarter note triplets", instead of the usual "dotted quarter - 1/8 notes". Nice to play with. It's all in the low-middle register, so, if you want, you can play parts up a register. It is also very high quality package. Large enough and easy to read and quality paper.

I actually had this transposed for Clarinet. It is truly a great piece of music by Piazzola. I wish instead of solfege numerals the chords would have been written out as in Dm, A7-5 etc but of course that was easy enough to fix but was time consuming because...

both the piano part and clarinet part had to be altered and re-copied.The piece was worth any incovenience that it may have caused. Great Music !!!!!

This is not the original melody or accompaniment, and is rather different in places. However, if you want a nice variation on the original - it's fine!

easily comprehendable but I'd have liked something with at least part of the melody line for piano instead of all oboe.

Lovely piece, beautifully arranged for oboe.
