Cuban sonero and composer Ignacio Piñeiro founded Septeto Nacional in 1927, as Columbia Records’ answer to RCA Victor’s popular Sexteto Habanero.

Lead singer Eugenio Rodríguez "Raspa" can turn a song inside out (e.g., Llora Como Llore, Quimera, Tu Mi Afinidad), while Leyva’s wicked, raspy 82-year-old baritone (as heard on the recent Afro Cuban All Stars) intertwines with Rubalcaba’s stylish piano in a compelling fashion.
