Whatever: Stefano Bollani and Hamilton de Holanda on ‘O Que Será’
Hamilton de Holanda on the bandolim and Stefano Bollani on piano
Their album, O Que Será, is so lovely and they play so beautifully together that I was seduced.
O Que Será was recorded in Antwerp, Belgium in the summer of 2012.
In this video they perform one of my favorite tracks on the album. It's called "Oblivion."
It's a slow burning tango written by Astor Piazzolla. When I was listening to this record and I got to this track, I just leaned back and said, "Oh my goodness, I have to do something about this. This is just such a sensationally, wonderful recording."
