Elvino Vardaro

Elvino Vardaro (born 18 June 1905, died 5 August 1971 in Córdoba) was a violinist who played with the orchestras of Juan Maglio, Roberto Firpo, Pedro Maffia, Osvaldo Fresedo and Astor Piazzolla, and who led or co-led several sextets and groups [1][3]. He co-led the Vardaro-Pugliese sextet from 1929 and formed his own sextet in 1933 [1][2].

Elvino Vardaro was born on 18 June 1905 [3]. He gave his debut violin recital on 10 July 1919 at the salón La Argentina, Rodríguez Peña 361 [1].

His career moved from silent-film cinema work into leading tango orchestras of the 1920s [1]. Juan Maglio recruited him in 1922, and he joined Roberto Firpo's orchestra in 1923 and Pedro Maffia's sextet in 1926 [1]. From 1929 he co-led the Vardaro-Pugliese sextet, which played the Café Nacional, the cine Metropol and the Teatro Politeama [2].

Vardaro formed his own sextet in 1933 and co-led the Demare-Vardaro group in 1938 [1]. He later played with Osvaldo Fresedo from 1942 and with Astor Piazzolla from 1955 until 1961 [1]. He recorded two sides for Columbia under his own name in 1953 and died in Córdoba on 5 August 1971 [1].

Early career

Vardaro gave his debut violin recital on 10 July 1919 at the salón La Argentina, located at Rodríguez Peña 361 [1].

In 1922 Juan Maglio recruited him from a silent-film cinema, and Vardaro toured the interior of the country with Maglio's orchestra [1].

In 1923 he joined Roberto Firpo's orchestra [1]. There he met the violinist Cayetano Puglisi [1].

In 1926 Vardaro joined Pedro Maffia's new sextet, which made its debut at the Café Colón [1]. Around the same time he began thirteen years of studio work for Victor [1].

Vardaro-Pugliese sextet

In 1929 Vardaro co-led the Vardaro-Pugliese sextet, which played the Café Nacional [2].

By 1930 the sextet included Aníbal Troilo and played the cine Metropol [2]. In 1931 it appeared at the Teatro Politeama [2].

Own sextet and the Demare-Vardaro group

In 1933 Vardaro formed his own sextet, with Aníbal Troilo and Jorge Argentino Fernández on bandoneons [1]. The sextet left only an unreleased acetate [1].

In 1938 he co-led the two-piano Demare-Vardaro group, which featured the singer Juan Carlos Miranda [1].

With Fresedo and Piazzolla

In 1942 Vardaro joined Osvaldo Fresedo's orchestra [1]. During this period he alternated that work with the Radio El Mundo orchestra and with Joaquín Do Reyes [1].

In 1955 he joined Astor Piazzolla's string orchestra and later Piazzolla's first quintet, remaining until 1961 [1].

Recordings

Vardaro's studio work for Victor began around 1926 and lasted thirteen years [1]. His own 1933 sextet left only an unreleased acetate [1].

In 1953 he recorded two sides for Columbia under his own name [1]:

- "Pico de oro" [1] - "El cuatrero" [1]

Later years and death

Vardaro spent his last years in the provincial symphony orchestra of Córdoba [1]. He died in Córdoba on 5 August 1971 [1].
