About the work

A Proud Tango is a piano composition inspired by the character and rhythmic drive of the tango, combining energy with a reflective undertone.
The piece is built around a clear melodic idea that unfolds through contrasting tonal areas, primarily a-minor, g-minor and c-minor, creating shifting colors while maintaining coherence and forward motion.
Rather than focusing on virtuosity, the music emphasizes rhythmic clarity, harmonic tension, and expressive phrasing.
A Proud Tango is conceived as a narrative piano piece, suitable both for attentive listening and for performance, where musical character and playability are equally important.
