Oblivion for String Quartet

 

Astor Piazzolla – Oblivion

String Quartet Arrangement – Sheet Music + Audio (PDF & WAVE)

Oblivion is one of Astor Piazzolla’s most hauntingly beautiful works—a slow tango that speaks of forgotten memories, quiet longing, and the delicate sadness of time slipping away. Composed in 1984 as part of the film score for Enrico IV, the piece showcases Piazzolla’s mastery in blending classical elegance with Argentine soul.

This string quartet arrangement (2 Violins, Viola, Cello) captures the original’s lyrical depth and subtle melancholy, translating Piazzolla’s signature harmonic language into a rich, expressive ensemble texture. A perfect selection for emotional concert moments, reflective programs, or intimate encore settings.
