Francisco Canaro (November 26, 1888 – December 14, 1964) was an Uruguayan violinist and tango orchestra leader.

Known as “Pirincho” Canaro, he had a career that spanned many decades, and his orchestra was one of the most recorded. Much of his recorded music is in the classic salon style of the 1940s, but he is also considered a member of the old guard, and some of his later recordings contributed to the transition to concert tango. For many contemporary dancers and listeners, his early golden age recordings are the best.

Canaro composed the music for the 1915 Argentine classic, Nobleza gaucha.

    Jaja lo mismo me pregunto brendanvox; supongo que será porque fue un tipo que no se quedó quieto nunca, fue de un lado del río al otro una y otra vez, y seguro entonces que también se fue para el norte.
