Ernesto Franco

Ernesto Franco, born on 1 February 1929, was a bandoneonist who played in several tango orchestras, including those of Osmar Maderna, Alfredo De Angelis and Juan D'Arienzo, and later led an orchestra under his own name [4][1]. He died in Buenos Aires on 24 April 2021 [3].

Ernesto Franco was born on 1 February 1929 [4]. His career as a performer, as documented, began in 1947, when he debuted in Elvino Vardaro's orchestra [1].

Over the following decade he played in the orchestras of Osmar Maderna, Roberto Caló and Alfredo De Angelis, serving as first bandoneon in De Angelis's orchestra from 1953 until late 1957 [1]. In 1954 he directed the orchestra on Roberto Rufino's recordings of Lo siento en el alma and Mi pobre novia for the Orfeo label [2].

From 1958 he was a member of Juan D'Arienzo's orchestra, with which he toured Japan in 1968 and 1970, and he remained until that orchestra ended on 14 January 1976 [1]. In 1996 he released a CD with his own orchestra on Forever Music [1]. A documentary, Ernesto Franco, bandoneón y compás, was released in 2002, and a concert marking his 90th birthday was held at the Usina del Arte on 18 August 2019 [3].

Early career (1947-1952)

Franco debuted in Elvino Vardaro's orchestra in 1947 [1].

In 1951 he replaced Leopoldo Federico in Osmar Maderna's orchestra, and he remained there until Maderna's death on 28 April [1].

In 1952 he made his first recordings with Roberto Caló's orchestra; the titles named are Lorenzo and La cachila [1].

With Alfredo De Angelis and Roberto Rufino (1953-1957)

From 1953 Franco was the first bandoneon of Alfredo De Angelis's orchestra, a position he held until late 1957 [1].

During this period, in 1954, he directed the orchestra on the singer Roberto Rufino's Orfeo recordings of Lo siento en el alma and Mi pobre novia [2].

With Juan D'Arienzo (1958-1976)

Franco joined Juan D'Arienzo's orchestra in 1958, after the carnival [1].

In 1968 he toured Japan with D'Arienzo's orchestra, which on that tour was under the direction of Juan Polito; he made the tour again in 1970 [1].

He left when D'Arienzo's orchestra came to an end on 14 January 1976, after 423 recordings [1].
