Rolando Alarcón Soto (Santiago de Chile, August 5, 1929 – February 4, 1973), was a Chilean singer-songwriter and teacher. He became a nationally renowned figure in his home country due to his work as a musician, and at his funeral president Salvador Allende paid his respects.

Alarcón, being homosexual, caused him to be punished by the Communist Party of Chile.
