Alberto Domínguez

Alberto Domínguez (1906–1975) was a Mexican composer and musician, best known for his contributions to bolero and Latin popular music. Born in San Cristóbal de las Casas, Chiapas, he achieved international recognition with his compositions "Perfidia" and "Frenesí," both written in 1939. These songs became enduring Latin jazz and swing standards, recorded by artists such as Glenn Miller, Xavier Cugat, and Benny Goodman.
