Details: The internationally acclaimed Divine Hand Ensemble proudly announces the release of it's electrifying new single, "Libertango" - a daring and emotionally charged reinterpretation of Astor Piazzolla's legendary tango. Now available on all major streaming platforms, the track showcases the ensemble's signature blend of classical sophistication and cutting-edge innovation, centered around the ethereal sound of the theremin, the world's first electronic instrument played without touch. Under the direction of theremin virtuoso Mano Divina, the Divine Hand Ensemble has forged a unique musical identity, weaving together operatic arias, classical masterpieces, and modern favorites with cinematic flair. With "Libertango," the ensemble dives deep into the sensual intensity of the tango, merging lush string arrangements with the haunting, voice-like timbre of the theremin - resulting in a soundscape that is both timeless and avant-garde. "Piazzolla revolutionized tango by blending it with jazz and classical music," says Mano Divina. "With Libertango, we wanted to honor his spirit of innovation - using the theremin not as a novelty, but as a voice that sings, weeps, and dances." "Libertango" serves as the lead single from the upcoming album 7 Tangos, a compelling tribute to Piazzolla's genius. The album is structured with three classic tangos on Side A, and three nuevo tangos on Side B, separated by a striking duet reinterpretation. Each piece remains faithful to Piazzolla's original compositions while being transformed through Divine Hand Ensemble's distinctive instrumentation - substituting, for example, one violin with five, or a single piano with dual harps. The result is a sound that honors the past while boldly reimagining it. The album includes seven of Piazzolla's authentic works - from universally celebrated favorites like "Libertango" and "Adiós Nonino," to lesser-known gems such as "Chiquilín de Bachín" and the haunting "12 Monkeys." "My musicians poured their hearts into this recording," says Mano. "As a lifelong Piazzolla devotee, I believe we've created something truly special - versions that are, in some cases, as beautiful or perhaps even more moving than any I've heard."
