Work introduction
For Anna-Maria, every time...!
In My long Awaiting - a portrait with a southern touch - there is an idea of a world of confidence, in which even melancholy seems hopeful. The title is a play on words, which is firstly a reference to the music of Latin America, to the Milonga genre, which is generally associated with the Tango. In colloquial language, the word also has other meanings, being used in the sense of ‘deceptiveness’, for example of something illusory. Thus, the pieces in this cycle are a kind of musical Fata Morgana, a mirage, which want to pay tribute to the creator of the new music from Buenos Aires, Astor Piazzolla, in his jubilee year.
Recorded on Anna-Maria Maak’s concept album ‘In the Secret of the World’ | Label Florentyn Music (Catalogue number: FM-CD 2101)
