Ángel Domingo Riverol

Angel Domingo Riverol (10/01/1893 - 06/26/1935) was an Argentine guitarist. His preferred instrument was the 9-string Spanish guitarra. He accompanied many famous artists of his time, including Juan Canaro, Ignacio Corsini, Ángel Greco, Ignacio Riverol, José María Aguilar, and Carlos Marcucci. In 1935, while on tour with Carlos Gardel, Alfredo Le Pera, and Guillermo Desiderio Barbieri, he and his band-mates boarded a plane. Soon after takeoff, it collided with another plane and exploded. Riverol was the only survivor, but died two days later as a result of his injuries.
