SEPTETO NACIONAL IGNACIO PIÑEIRO
“If joy had a sound, it would be Septeto Nacional…All the exciting descendants of Septeto Nacional’s songs, including mambo, cha cha cha, rumba Congolaise and Latin jazz, tumble together and make the walls move and floor dance." - Bill Bentley MYDAILYFIND.COM
"In my humble opinion, the greatest living real band in the world..."
Ry Cooder
Spend your Hallowe'en evening with the lively music and entertaining talent of Septeto Nacional Ignacio Pineiro and the evolving sound of Cuban Son. Septeto, formed in 1928, replaces its musicians as needed and the current configuration invokes the spirit of Havana from the 1920's while delivering the smooth lush sounds of contemporary Cuba to its audience. There is a costume contest and prizes for the most colourfully dressed audience members! Septeto Nacional is part of the Global Experience Series which includes Yadong Guan, Kirin Ahluwalia, H’Sao and April Verch. The cost of the Global Experience subscription is $99 per adult and $50 per student, plus HST and service charges.
