With arrangements by pianist, composer and arranger Alejandro Falcón, the tune by Failde Orchestra is a new version of a Cuban classic entitled ‘La cubana es la perla del eden’ by renowned Cuban musician Ignacio Piñeiro –one of the greatest all-time exponents of Cuban son and the founder of the Ignacio Piñeiro Septeto Nacional orchestra in 1927.
