Guastavino is one of the foremost Argentine composers of the 20^th century, creating over 400 works, including 150 songs for voice and piano. Among his most renowned pieces are example “Pueblito, mi pueblo,” “La rosa y el sauce (The Rose and the Willow),” and “Se equivocó la paloma (The Dove Was Wrong).” Guastavino is often referred to as “the Schubert of the Pampas.”
