For more than 80 years, Septeto Nacional Ignacio Piñeiro de Cuba has reigned supreme as the world's foremost champion and protector of Cuban son, the musical heartbeat of Cuba. The 7-piece band was founded in 1927 by Ignacio Piñeiro Martínez (1888-1969), the wildly prolific Cuban bassist and composer known affectionately as "el Poeta del Son." Since then, the group has seen an array of Cuban musical superstars pass through its ranks, including Abelardo Barroso, Miguelito Valdés, Bienvenido Granda and Carlos Embale.
