Ignacio Corsini

Ignacio Corsini (February 13, 1891 – July 26, 1967) was a well-known Argentine folklore and tango vocalist. Andrés Ignacio Corsini was born in Troina, a village in the Catania Province of Sicily, in 1891. He was the illegitimate son of Socorro Salomone and a local man whose identity was never revealed publicly—save for his being a Corsini (hence the child's last name). Ms. Salomone left Italy for Buenos Aires, in 1896, and settled in the middle-class Almagro section of the city.
