Product Description
Capture the profound and melancholic spirit of Astor Piazzolla's iconic 'Oblivion,' a cornerstone of the Nuevo Tango genre, now available in a versatile Real Book Melody & Chords arrangement. This hauntingly beautiful piece is presented in the original key of C Minor and 4/4 time, beginning softly with a delicate, expressive mood.
Designed for the Intermediate musician, this lead sheet is perfect for C instruments and includes full chord symbols, making it adaptable for various performance settings or ensemble play.

Its clear presentation of melody and chord names ensures flexibility and encourages personal interpretation, providing a rich musical experience.
