Violinist Joshua Bell resists romantic Argentinean urges by David Srebnik Violinist Joshua Bell's new CD ("At Home With Friends") includes a tango by the Argentinean composer Astor Piazzolla.

Piazzolla's music delves deep into a world of exotic, romantic and gritty passion. His music is good on the ears and the imagination, but there's more than one way to play Piazzolla.

Joshua Bell talked with David Srebnik about the choices he made when he recorded Piazzolla's "Oblivion."
