Re: Week 3
@Blaise Laflamme Thanks. Glad you are a fan of Agustin's arrangements. Piazzolla is quoted as saying Agustin's arrangements of his pieces are stupendous.

Re: Week 3
@Steve Price Thanks. I agree not always the best quality recordings but great to listen to and I really love his arrangements. Agustin was a very special soul with a big heart and immense talent.

Re: Week 1
@Eric Phillips Thanks, Eric. Yes, Agustin was Abel's older brother by a few years. Agustin was an architect by profession but also an accomplished guitarist and arranger of Tangos.
