Alberto Favero

Argentinian composer, arranger and piano player. He was born in La Plata, Argentina, in 1944, at a musicians home. His father, Fermín Valentín Favero, a well known music teacher, founded the first music academy specialized in popular music forms and instruments in Argentina. In 1963 he graduated with a "Special Bachelors Degree in Music" from the Superior School of Fine Arts of the National University of La Plata. In 1968 he obtained a degree as Piano Professor and in 1973 as Composition Professor, both from the Department of Arts and Audio-visual Media from the National University of La Plata. Alberto Favero's production is very diverse, and it has been reflected in a variety of musical fields. They can be grouped, however, in three main categories: Concerts and recitals, Setting poems to music (as many Mario Benedetti's poems) and Musical Theater (Shows, musical comedies, opera, ballet and related multimedia productions). He has backed [a2473261] in many shows and albums and has arranged most of his records.
