South American Classical Music

[The Silver Fox]

Watching 'The Proms' one night on BBC television I had the pleasure in seeing and listening to the Venezuelan Youth Orchestra. They played a sample of South American Classical Music. I did not write down any of the composers.
Can any one suggest a selection to listen to? Thank you.

I'd suggest going to the BBC website. I'll bet the program is listed there somewhere.

[Art Rock]

For starters:
Villa Lobos
Ginastera
Barrios
Piazzolla

[Corno Dolce]

Ah yes, Astor Piazzolla - his music is the perfect introduction to the passionate Tango dance form, especially the Argentinian version - wow!!!

Thanks 'some guy', found the results from the web site.
Suggestions appreciated 'Art Rock' I will sample the names and give them a listening.
'Corno Dolce' a new experience for me this type of music, can feel the power of the themes.
Thanks to you all.

Cheers,
