Chacón said the title of the album signals an interest in including tunes that best reflect the vast musical legacy of all-time great Cuban composers like Chucho Valdés, Juan Almeida, Juan Formell and César Pedroso, among others.

The leader of Magic Sax noted that maestro Bonne will turn 95 next June 15th. He added that this is his birthday present Bonne and that the Dominican singer was exited and honored to record a tune authored by the musician from Santiago de Cuba.

In 2015, Jonny Ventura performed at Teatro Heredia in Santiago de Cuba, along with singer Maridalia Hernández and La Gallera orchestra, in the framework of the 35th Caribbean Festival.

The album ‘Imprescindibles’ of sax quartet Magic Sax, with Bis Music label, was produced by musician Manolito Simonet and saxophonist Germán Velasco.
