O’s Notes: Roger and Ral are masters of their instruments (piano and bandoneón). They come together to play eighteen compositions written by Davidson. It is Roger’s third album of tangos but the first to be based solely on his own creations. The CD is appropriately titled Pasión por la Vida as each of the selections is full of life. Davidson did not overly arrange these charts allowing ample expression to surface during the recording session. The results are appreciable in yet another good addition to the collection of Davidson’s work focused on Latin America.
