Osvaldo Pedro Pugliese (Buenos Aires, December 2, 1905 – July 25, 1995, Buenos Aires) was an Argentine tango musician. He developed dramatic arrangements that retained strong elements of the walking beat of salon tango but also heralded the development of concert-style tango music. His father, Don Adolfo Pugliese, pushed him to work harder; his mother, Aurelia Terragno, often whispered to her son while he was practicing, al Colon (to the Colon), referring to Buenos Aires` famous Colon Theater, where only the country`s finest artists play. His other brothers Adolfo Vincente and Alberto Roque were violinists.
