| Pedro Datta (1887 - 1934)  ArgentinaPianist and composer
/ Like many cases in the history of tango, the pianist Pedro Datta is for us someone unknown, despite his oeuvre printed in many piano sheet music copies which fortunately we own and an unforgettable classic, his waltz ?El aeroplano?.
So mysterious is his life that the largest information we found was in his death certificate.
Through it we knew he was Argentine, neighbor of Villa Urquiza, with domicile on 4870 Mendoza Street, the place where he died at age 47, at 4:20 am. He was son of Pedro and Dominga Pastore, both Italians ?probably from the Turin region? and, that at the time of his death they had already died. He was an employee, single and that?s all.
