“Tango Eternity,” a piece for two saxophones (also available for two bassoons), was commissioned by Kestrel Duo (Michael Keeler and Owen Kilpatrick) and premiered by them on January 31, 2022, at Western Michigan University.

The musical inspiration for the piece came after listening a lot to Astor Piazzolla, a brilliant composer who made a revolution in tango by adding to this traditional music some jazz and Western classical music influences. While “Tango Eternity” is not “jazzy” per se, it certainly has a bit of jazz flavor.
