Biography
Marcos Mundstock, born (1942-05-25) 25 May 1942 is a musician, writer, comedian and former broadcaster and copywriter.
Born in Santa Fe, Argentina, he is best known as a founding member of Les Luthiers, their emcee, and writing many of their libretti and lyrics. He also invented one of their most famous instruments, the gom-horn (a trumpet parody) and occasionally played keyboards and percussion for their numbers. Mostly, his role is that of the 'non-musician' member, in spite of having sung for their (mostly operatic) pieces with some frequency.
