Dúo Rey-Silva was a Chilean musical duo consisting of Alberto Rey (1915-1991) and Sergio Silva (1917-2017). Both sang while Rey played the harp and Silva the guitar. They performed principally in the cueca and tonada traditions.[1][2][3][4] They also performed in Chilean motion pictures from the 1940 to the 1960s. Rey was also known for his work as a soloist on the harp. In 1996, they were honored with the designation as fundamental figures of Chilean music.[5]
