The 79 year old pianist Rubén Gonzáles
is regarded by his fellow musicians as one of Cuba's national treasures.
Ruben is the last survivor of a trio of pianists who helped create the modern

a musician and joined the conjunto (dance ensemble) of the
ledgendary blind tres player, Arsenio Rodriguez in the early
1940's. It was a time when the African-influenced mambo.
Rubén Gonzáles has spent his life playing alongside Cuba's greatest musicians and has waited more than half a century to make this album.
This album was recorded in just two days;
live in Havanna with no overdubs.

to his trademark, bass harmony, second bass. Compay's career began in Santiago
with the first great flowering of the Cuban son during the 1920's.

early 1940's, with an introduction in danzon rhythm followed by a mambo
section with solos from piano, trumpet and bass.
