Bandoneon player, leader, and composer.
(July 11, 1914 – May 18, 1975)

It is said that he had something from Pedro Maffia. Still, suppose someone has influenced his way of playing, in the form of developing a conversation on the bandoneon, in his touching capacity when delaying notes in his phrasing. In that case, this one has been Ciriaco Ortiz. He played slightly bent forward; eyes closed, his double chin hanging. Sometime later, he remarked: «It is said that I am very often moved and that I cry. Yes, it is true. But I never do these things for trivial reasons».
