Roland Dyens was an extraordinary musician, composer and arranger. His last project "The Last Tango" was dedicated to the music of great Argenitinian composer Astor Piazzolla, It took a number of years to complete. Dyens was still revising the manuscripts in the hospital right up until his death in 2016. In total, there are ten arrangements, beginning with possibly the composer’s greatest “hit,” Adiós Nonino. This is followed by Chau Paris, Chiquilin de Bachin, Libertango, Milonga del Angel, Ovblivion, and, of course, the Cuatro Estaciones Porteñas: Primavera Porteño, Verano Porteño, Otono Porteño and Invierno Porteño.
Dyens has tried to remain as faithful to the originals as is possible on just six strings. Sérgio Assad in the preface writes about Dyens' arrangements: "They represent the summit of this remarkable musician’s work and push the limits of the guitar to unprecedented levels."
