Project

Convinced of the universal and timeless character of Astor Piazzolla’s music, we have decided to survey, organize and make visible the complete catalog of his works so that everyone can get to know the variety of his creations

According to data provided by the Society of Authors and Composers of Music in France (SACEM), the total number of works registered in the name of Astor Piazzolla is six hundred and eighty-five, but only a small percentage of them are known and performed worldwide.

What for?

To broaden the knowledge of Astor Piazzolla’s creations and to facilitate and enhance access to his legacy.

We are at the disposal of all those who need our help to bring Astor Piazzolla’s music to all corners of the world:
info@fundacionpiazzolla.org

Our vision is to position www.astorpiazzolla.com as the digital platform of reference for anyone interested in Astor Piazzolla’s work.

Who is it aimed at?

To the followers of his work, whether musicians or lovers of his music; but also to those who do not yet know him.

What can visitors find here?

The core of this initiative is the alphabetically ordered catalog of works with information that promotes contact with the publishers that administer his work. This information allows contacting those who provide the scores of Astor’s works as well as those who receive the requests for Synchronization (permissions for the reproduction of a musical work in an audiovisual work or in advertising).

The curatorship of the content also presents fundamental aspects of Astor’s life, mainly linked to his musical career: biomusical chronology, outstanding musical events and the complete discography.

A relevant aspect of this initiative is the interconnection that the contents of the website will have with Astor’s official accounts on platforms such as Spotify, Youtube and Instagram. Information, Music, Video and images help us to enter the world of Astor Piazzolla. 

What are Astor's official profiles on digital platforms?

Astor Piazzolla El Legado involved a work of ordering Astor’s music present in the main platforms. For easy identification, we have organized it as follows:

Astor Piazzolla Performer
