“Our good things outweigh the bad”

Interview with Eduardo Pantuso

“My grandfather played the verdulera de los tanos” starts by telling anecdotes  Eduardo Pantuso  and will not stop anymore.  The long-time folklorist  on stage in the country, who knew how to accompany  Cacho Tirao and Argentino Luna  , acquired national relevance when his zamba al Cura Brochero accompanied the canonization promoted by   Pope Francis   and another zamba, now for the daughter of the governor of Salta,  Juan Manuel Urtubey , became a trend in the network. “Humble people will leave you much more than the superb. One who left me a lot was the Turk - Jorge- Cafrune , who offered himself humbly to the people, very friend of my dad. Poor of those of now who do not have humility”, says who also rubbed with great popular musicians such as  Sandro  and  Palito Ortega .

Connoisseur of Argentine routes, who also participated in the   Cosquín Festival , notes with sadness that we have “a very competitive Argentina where you run to see who takes advantage. For now I don't see it reverted,” says the also merchant with a long performance in Buenos Aires politics, and inflates his chest stating that “I could move out of the neighborhood but I never left here. My house is Floresta”, says  Eduardo , something we could see as soon as he accompanied us to the sidewalk and greeted him to the agent on the corner.

“To my children having a chance to give him a lot more, I give much less. And that way they know what life costs. You can't give the children what you didn't have. It is a mistake of us as parents to give them tastes beyond our possibilities,” he reflects looking at the barbershop of one of his children with the  gaze  of a proud man for sustaining Argentine values as usual.
