Invierno Porteño by Astor Piazzolla, performed by Stephanie Jones

Another one of my favourite pieces to play - it is such a beautiful work, an expressive mixture of singing melodies and captivating rhythm. Piazzolla's New Tango is not just simple dance music, but an emotionally rich world, melding together nuances of both classical and jazz music.

Arr. Sérgio Assad

I hope you enjoy!

Invierno Porteño is one work from a set of four tango compositions. Each piece was conceived as an individual composition, but together they form the Cuatro Estaciones Porteñas, or The Four Seasons of Buenos Aires. Porteño is an adjective for people born in Buenos Aires, and the word Invierno refers to Winter.

What a performance. What a musician. That balance of clarity and musicality that we all strive for.

Questa è una delle tante cose belle che mi fanno sognare, mi commuovono, per cui trovo ancora la forza di vivere.

Cómo toca la guitarra esta joven mujer!!! My Argentinian heart is melting listening to her play my favorite composer !!!! My dad played music by Astor Piazzola in guitar as well, he passed away many years ago and he would be so impressed and in awe of this talented young lady . 👏👏👏👏

In the past 2 weeks I've been hearing over than 15 top classical guitarrists playing this Invierno (and others, Otono & Primavera) and none else plays Piazzolla like Stephanie, indeed! Piazzolla requires energy, passion, some violence and a honey swetness, sometimes all together along a single phrasing, free rithym, free dynamics and so on.... Missing to hear Verano Porteno with her!!! I'm absolutely sure that Sérgio Assad is very proud, rapt and joyful on hearing (and seeing) Stephanie playing his arrangements for guitar of these 4 Piazzolla's master pieces. She hit on the nail! In fact, on the strings! :)👏👏👏👏

This woman's playing on the strings of that guitar is the most porteño and Piazzola I've heard in years. She plays a difficult and beautiful piece by the incomparable Astor. I loved it, I am very grateful for the sensitivity, the clear notes, and for all the beauty that Stephanie gives us. Congratulations!

The technique, the expression but most of the musical dialogue that tells a story almost like watching a classic movie drama is amazing in this performance.

Precious girl, Astor Piazzola, would have been honored by you laying this song, Stephanie you're amazing!

When I began classical guitar study in my 20s, I was only one of two women in our department. There were not many guitarists then and it was kind of discouraging.

I can’t express how happy I am to see so many women playing and playing beautifully.

si viviera piazzola te llevariaa su lado, sos una genia reina

Phenomenal guitar player. Had a privilege to see Stephanie playing last week in Reutlingen. This mix of flawless technique, artistic charisma and and genuine musicality is rare to come by. There was another lady with guitar playing that night and with all due respect, one could clearly hear the difference. You got yourself a loyal fan here

Una ragazza australiana che ha studiato in Germania e che suona la musica di un autore argentino di origine italiana.... Miracoli della musica!

[violentxsaintful]

Being Argentinian, I could'nt express how much I loved your interpretation of this beautiful song by Piazzolla. You trully captured it all. So talented, great playing from you. Congrats!
