艺人介绍

by Craig HarrisFounded by Havana-born bassist and vocalist Ignacio Piniero in 1927, Septeto Nacional De Ignacio Piniero have played an important role in Cubas music for more than seven decades. Pioneers of Son, a rhythmic blend of African and Cuban music that evolved into Salsa, the Mambo, and Latin jazz, the group was the first Son band to incorporate trumpet as a lead instrument. Attracting global recognition with their performance at the World Exposition in Seville in 1928, Septeto Nacional De Ignacio Piniero were, reportedly, the first band to mention salsa in a song, Echale Salsita, recorded in 1933. The song, composed by Piniero, was adapted by George Gershwin for the opening theme of his Cuban Overture. Since Pinieros death in 1968, following 41 years at the bands helm, Septeto Nacional De Ignacio Piniero has been directed by a series of leaders. Guitarist and composer Rafael Ortiz, who took over after inieros death, bequeathed the position to lead singer Carlos Embale in 1982. Leaving the band due to illness in 1998, Embales leadership was inherited by guitarist Richard Aymee Castro. Remaining true to their original musical roots, Septeto Nacional De Ignacio Piniero continue to serve a dance-inspiring mix of montano, merengue, bolero, rumba, and cha cha cha.
