Daniela Mack (mezzo-soprano) - Piazzola - Sur

With *Sur*, mezzo-soprano Daniela Mack presents a deeply personal journey—an album shaped by memory, identity, and a constant longing for home. Inspired by a vivid childhood memory—listening to music from the back seat of her father’s car—Mack recounts her first encounter with the captivating soundscape of Astor Piazzolla. His music, full of color, power, and intensity, left an indelible impression that continues to resonate in her artistic work to this day. Known for her versatility across the entire opera spectrum, Mack finds in Piazzolla’s reinterpreted tango a natural intersection between classical discipline and expressive freedom, imbuing these songs with both technical finesse and emotional immediacy. As an Argentine artist living abroad, Mack reconnects with the spirit of Buenos Aires through music that invites vivid storytelling. Each piece unfolds like an intimate vignette, enriched by the arrangements of her collaborator JP, whose work honors Piazzolla’s legacy while adding a distinctive, personal touch—including his tender “Dulce suenos.” Together, they create a soundscape that is both nostalgic and immediate, rooted in tradition yet brought to life through reinvention—an invitation to experience music that, in its depth and universality, speaks to everyone.
