Aquiles Roggero

Aquiles Roggero (12 March 1913 – 21 December 1977) was an Argentine musician, pianist, conductor, and composer.

Life Aquiles Roggero was born in Pehuajó, Argentina, the son of Luisa Guallini and José María Roggero.

Between 1936 and 1939, he was the pianist for the Vitaphone orchestra, which was led by his fellow townsman and friend Osmar Maderna.

In 1940 and 1941, he joined the orchestral group "Los Rítmicos," and years later, Maderna, who had already left Miguel Caló's orchestra, invited him to join his newly formed one.

In 1976, at the request of his followers, Roggero reformed the Orquesta Símbolo once again, which was disbanded after the musician died on December 21, 1977.
