In those years he met Jorge Luis Borges, with whom he collaborated for the album El tango. He then began an experimentation of his own, becoming – as he said in the Sixties – a vanguardista of the tango.
After this educational experience and that in the orchestra of Annibal Troilo, Piazzolla encountered European music through Nadia Boulanger with whom he studied. Thanks to the great pianist Arthur Rubinstein, he became a pupil of Alberto Ginastera, whom Piazzolla kept acknowledging as the greatest Argentinian composer of his century. Many encounters influenced his musical life. The name of Astor Piazzolla is fatally linked to the Tango, although his artistic parable is much more complex than it appears to a superficial look.
