It was clear that the Argentinian-born Cotik has Piazzolla’s music in his blood. It was to be expected that he would be able to exploit everything that these arrangements require technically. But more importantly, he knew how to capture the spirit of the music, from subtle sensuality and longing to fierce passion and supreme virtuosity.

…nothing challenges Cotik, who uses a Baroque bow to lovely effect…The booklet essay says that “every note of these often complex pieces lies perfectly, if not easily, [my italics] under the bow.” Well, yes – if you’re as superb a player as Tomás Cotik.

“
Tomás Cotik, whose technical and expressive abilities, already highlighted in other reviews of his CDs, are confirmed here and indeed enhanced respectively in the agility present in these scores, which he effortlessly surpasses with clarity of sound, and in the beautiful tone he displays in the more lyrical passages.
