Osmar Maderna

Last week looked at the life and tragic death of Osmar Maderna so this week features his music, divided into two parts. The earlier part of the program focuses on the first half of his career, spent with Miguel Caló; then the focus shifts to the second half of his career, when he led his own orquesta.
