Some time ago I have found a nice video with a mandolin version of a piece with titel Tango en Skai<\/strong> played by the Japanese mandolin player Kozo Onishi<\/strong>. I had not heard this piece before, but I liked it immediately.<\/p>\n

This is one of the two videos of Tango en Skai by Kozo Onishi played on the mandolin:<\/p>\n

I wanted to know more about this piece so I looked for information and other videos. Tango en Skai<\/strong> was composed by Roland Dyens<\/strong>, who is a guitarist and composer and there is a video of Tango en Skai played by himself:<\/p>\n

\nIn the last video Tango en Skai is played by the young Japanese guitarist Kaori Mujari. This shows that Tango en Skai is also vey popular in Japan, maybe Kozo Onishi was inspired by a video like this to play this tune on the mandolin.<\/p>\n
