Principal roles are 30s-40s. Juan Perón is a baritone, Officer in the Argentinean army who rises to become the President, dignified, charming, and authoritative, husband to Eva. Magaldi is a baritone, Tango singer with whom Eva has her first love affair, charming but never quite made it professionally.
