1944, 11 August – birth of NITO MORES

Singer…(Leo) born in the neighborhood Villa del Parque, Buenos Aires…son of the renown leader and composer Mariano Mores, who oddly, did not want his son to pursue a career as a tango singer…finally, seeing his son’s determination and talent, he acquiesces

**

His dreams of being a great composer and inspiring the younger generation into tango and even a planned tour of Japan were tragically cut short by cancer and he dies at the age of 40
