Argentine composer Diego Tedesco’s first portrait album reveals a composer with a sure grasp on the musical language he wields. Varietas, out now on New Focus Recordings, includes an assortment of striking works. Three feature soloists (violin, guitar, voice). The others are ensemble pieces. All uncover fresh seams of gold in well-explored mines of atonality and abstraction.
