  1. Musical Interlude: The composer of this piece described it as someone listening to old 78s late at night, and reminiscing about old times and lost loves. There's something almost ghostly in this tune, as if phantoms from the past were swirling about you.

    "Tango Solitario," performed by Quartetto Gelato.

  6. Musical Interlude: I'm a longtime fan of Canadian classical troupe Quartetto Gelato, and this is from my favorite of their albums, dedicated to the Orient Express, and with pieces illustrating various stops along the legendary train's route. We have London, Paris, Munich, Vienna, Budapest, Bucharest, and finally Istanbul, which this represents. And I never thought accordion could sound so exotic. (Yes, they're oboe, cello, violin, and accordion...)

    "Turkish Circus," performed by Quartetto Gelato.

  11. Musical Interlude: I love Quartetto Gelato, and this is one reason why. I lovely performance of an operatic aria, given a minimalist accompaniment of guitar. Just the thing for a hot summer day.

    "Siciliana (Lola)" from the opera "Cavalleria Rusticana," performed by Quartetto Gelato.

  16. Musical Interlude: Quartetto Gelato again! This time, from a bit later in their career, we have a track from a project where they paid tribute to Canadian composers. On this track, they play a piece from Howard Cable, who composed many themes for CBC radio and television, and had a longtime association with Canadian Brass. This work isn't what you would normally think of as classical, but QG was always one to stretch boundaries and challenge assumptions. Give it a listen...

    "On the Crowsnest Trail," composed by Howard Cable, performed by Quartetto Gelato.

  20. Musical Interlude: OK, y'all, get up and tango! This opened the first album by Canadian classical group Quartetto Gelato, of which I have always been fond. They have always been noted for their playful approach and varied repertoire, with tangos, Romany music, and opera routinely coming into play. This piece introduced me to them, and made me a fan right away.

    "Chitarra Romana," performed by Quartetto Gelato.

  29. Musical Interlude: I'm a longtime fan of Canadian ensemble Quartetto Gelato. For a while, early in the century, they experimented with Latin American music, and here's an example from that period of one of the all-time great Spanish-language songs.

    "Besame Mucho," performed live by Quartetto Gelato.
