Alberto Ginastera’s zodiac sign is Aries. According to astrologers, the presence of Aries always marks the beginning of something energetic and turbulent. They are continuously looking for dynamic, speed and competition, always being the first in everything - from work to social gatherings. Thanks to its ruling planet Mars and the fact it belongs to the element of Fire (just like Leo and Sagittarius), Aries is one of the most active zodiac signs. It is in their nature to take action, sometimes before they think about it well.
Alberto Ginastera was born in the Year of the Dragon. A powerful sign, those born under the Chinese Zodiac sign of the Dragon are energetic and warm-hearted, charismatic, lucky at love and egotistic. They’re natural born leaders, good at giving orders and doing what’s necessary to remain on top. Compatible with Monkey and Rat.
Considered one of the great South American classical composers of the twentieth century, Ginastera wrote opera, ballet, choral, and chamber music, as well as film music and works for piano and organ. His works include Cantata para America Magica (1960), Beatrix Cenci (1971), and Danzas Argentinas (1937).
In his early twenties, he trained at a music conservatory in his native Argentina and went on to teach music at the Liceo Militar General San Martin.
Members of the English rock band Emerson, Lake & Palmer adapted a portion of one of Ginastera's piano concertos into a track on their 1973 album Brain Salad Surgery.
A member of a family of Catalan and Italian heritage, he grew up in Buenos Aires, Argentina. He later lived and worked in both the United States and Europe; he died in Switzerland in his late sixties.
During the mid-1940s, he studied with the renowned American Composer Aaron Copland .
