Over a long, distinguished career rooted in tango, the 90-year-old Argentinian bandoneon player Dino Saluzzi has collaborated with numerous artists. They include the Norwegian jazz drummer Jon Christensen (their 2002 duo album, Senderos, is a marvel of flexibility and flow), the American bassist Charlie Haden, who appeared on the excellent 1986 quartet release Once Upon a Time—Far Away in the South, and the German classical cellist Anja Lechner, who Saluzzi has worked with several times.

On El Viejo Caminante, Saluzzi is joined by his son José Maria Saluzzi on classical guitar, and Norwegian-born Jacob Young on acoustic steel-string and electric guitars. The guitarists' fingerings can lean in different directions—jazz, classical, flamenco, folk—as they create a bed for the elder Saluzzi's soundings. Each member of the trio contributes original material, and the album also includes a couple of pieces from the American Songbook.

José's "La Ciudad de Los Buenos Aires" foregrounds lovely, interlocked guitar patterns, and Dino's choice bandoneon tones bring an additional emotional edge to this effective opener. Young's "Quiet March" is imbued with subtle drama. The main section rivets with its pulsing guitar and beguiling melodic figures. Throughout, the three musicians display a deft touch and keen attention to dynamics. Long notes, extended runs, and just-so accents are employed to create a generally wistful mood.

Dino plays unaccompanied on the title track. It's a masterful performance marked by moving church cadences and colored by a profound nostalgic quality. And the recording nicely picks up the clicks and clacks of the free-reed instrument, emphasizing the physicality of musicmaking.

El Viejo Caminante closes with a duo take on Guy Wood and Robert Mellin's "My One and Only Love," a song that Frank Sinatra recorded in the 1950s. First Dino, then Young (on electric guitar) run through the material without accompaniment. Later, the pair team up, subtly playing off each other for the rest of the cut. The music flows, moving like an enlivening breeze.
