Often coupled with the Vivaldi鈥檚 famous 4 Seasons, Piazzolla鈥檚 bears little similarity to the earlier suite. Piazzolla wrote single movement works, for a widely mixed ensemble. The bandoneon, an Argentine tango instrument similar to an accordion takes centre stage in all, often being complemented by a contrasting ensemble instrument. Percussion is prominent in Autumn.
