Oblivion - Piazzolla - Viola Solo

Jafet J. Oquendo - Viola Solo. Oblivion was written in 1982 when Piazzolla was in the United States. It is one of the five Piazzolla pieces that appeared in the 1984 film Henry IV by Marco Bellocchio.[3][4][5] The film was not successful, and its soundtrack did not attract attention at the time.[4] It instead received much wider appreciation in Europe later that same year, when the piece was performed by the Italian singer Milva with French lyrics by David McNeil, the son of Marc Chagall.[1][6] Titled J'oublie ("I forget"), it was recorded live at the Théâtre des Bouffes du Nord in Paris in September 1984 with Piazzolla on the bandoneon and Pablo Ziegler on the piano, and released in France and Germany.
