"Niet een al te positieve recensie"
Leeuwarder Courant, 01-11-2013The Isabelle van Keulen Ensemble started in January 2011, initiated by violinist and violist Isabelle van Keulen, in the series ‚Carte Blanche’ in Haarlem’s Concertgebouw with compositions by Ástor Piazzolla. After the enormous success of their first concert many further invitations followed instantaniously, a.o. Den Haag (Nieuwe Kerk) and Amsterdam (Concertgebouw), and also from international music festivals like Schleswig Holstein Musikfestival, Rheingau Musikfestival and Delft Chamber Music Festival.

Ulrike Payer has since many years been engaged with the Argentinian Tango. Especially her encounter and cooperation with bandonéon player Alfredo Marcucci in 1998 gave her a huge inspiration in this genre.

Tango passion

"For lovers, and there are undoubtedly many, there is nothing else but to buy both formats, but than you have the crème de la crème of Piazzolla's performances at home"

They take Astor Piazolla's music by heart and this is how they play themselves into the hearts of everyone loving music - and especially tango.
Kultur online, 18-9-2013
better than any other classical music record ever made

Grade: A+
"Every bar demands your complete attention. But there's little cheerful or elating about it. The overwhelming emotion of most of the numbers is sadness, especially when the mournful bandoneón is doing anything other than rhythm"

Hans Pannecoucke's Regie is cautious and considered: The camera floates slowly without deviating from the actual object, while the cuts are used in a contained way.
klassik.com, 17-8-2013
A music, the quartet was completely absorbed in that evening.
Der Inselbote, 17-8-2013
delightful variety
Wiesbadener Tagblatt, 13-8-2013
"For the violinist it is a special experience to be a guest at the kamermuziekfestival in Delft, this is her own brainchild which she led with passion with for so long."
Telegraaf, 05-8-2013
"The CD contains many classics, like Oblivion and Libertango, but also the drawn Contrabaijisimo and the beautiful melanchol song Tanti anni prima, from Piazzolla's soundtrack from the film Enrico IV Bellochio."
NRC Handelsblad, 05-8-2013
Isabelle van Keulen and her ensemble are not re-inventing Tango. But they play the popular compositions by Piazolla with such an intensity as they are discovering it for the first time - and they create an ispiring experience for the audience.
hr2 Kultur, 09-7-2013
This recording of Piazolla's compositions is convincing with a seldom heard intensity
Norddeutscher Rundfunk, 03-6-2013
With her ensemble with cast violin, bandoneon, double bass and piano van Keulen underlines the passion and the avantgardistic snap in Piazzollas art-tangos and makes you feel a amorous rusteling, the finesse and the nearly physical delight of playing these compositions.
