Delete. Inadequate amount of reliable sources available. Liu1126 (talk) 11:33, 29 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Weak delete: Unfortunately, none of the sources about him meet WP:RELIABLE. What reputable sources I've found only mention him in passing along with other Dominican conductors. For example, this article, a chronology of music directors at the Orquesta Sinfónica Nacional, devotes a paragraph to him. It's a shame because what little I've turned up in Spanish suggests that he was a formidable musician and an important figure in the development of art music in the Dominican Republic. —CurryTime7-24 (talk) 20:26, 30 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Weak delete per CurryTime7-24; shame, given he was quoted as being a brilliant musician. unfortunate loss. Darling ☔ (talk · contribs) 19:12, 3 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
