July 2025 Dino Saluzzi: bandoneon Jacob Young: electric and acoustic guitars José Maria Saluzzi: classical guitar Two guitars gently envelop the uniquely evocative bandoneon of Dino Saluzzi on El Viejo Caminante, (‘The Old Wanderer’). Here, the Argentinean father and son team of Dino and José María Saluzzi are joined by Norway’s Jacob Young, in an album of musical depth and great charm. “It fills me with joy”, says Dino Saluzzi, delighting in this recording’s sonic blend, with José on classical guitar and Jacob on Telecaster and acoustic steel-string guitar. “Jacob and José are very good together. They have different sounds, different visions, but when it comes to the artistic output there is something beautiful happening.” The elder Saluzzi, who turned 90 in May, has lost none of his youthful enthusiasm for artistic collaboration, or for venturing beyond stylistic borders: “I always strive to make contact with new ideas outside my normal element,” he says, still seeking out contexts that offer, as he puts it, “potential for both musical and human growth.” The programme includes originals, new and old, by all three musicians, a song by Karin Krog as well as a couple of standards – Dino sees the album as a collection of music from different times and places that touches upon tango, Argentinean folk music and jazz and makes of these allusions something fresh.
