Luis Alvarez is a musical arranger and a great violinist, who expresses the music he plays in a very sensitive way. His talent comes from birth, as his father was already a violinist, Don Lorenzo Alvarez, known as the romantic violinist Assunção.
Luis Alvarez graduated in 1972 from the Conservatory of Music as a violin teacher. He was a member of the Asuncion City Symphony Orchestra – OSCA, for more than a decade and the Charitas Radio Chamber Orchestra, led by Floetin Gimenez and Luiz Szaran.
In 1983, he began his career as an arranger of popular music for Paraguayan artists, such as Vocal Dois, Namandu, Lizza Bogado Generation Group, Grupo Surgente, Pearl, Jorge Castro, Grupo Contraponto, Juan Cancio Barreto, Horacio Guarany, Oscar Gomez, among others.
With Berta Rojas and Juan Cancio Barreto he was responsible for the album “Guitar in”, which was highly praised internationally in the United States. He also performed several shows at festivals and local television.
