Gilberto S. Valdés (21 May 1905, in Jovellanos, Matanzas – 12 May 1972, in New York City) was a Cuban music director and composer who specialised in the afro genre of Cuban popular music.[1][2] Valdés was one of the first popular bandleaders to introduce African melody, rhythm and traditional themes into his music.[3] His Afro-Cuban compositions first gained attention in 1935, when Rita Montaner, accompanied by the pianist Rafael Betancourt, presented his songs "Bembé", "Baró", "Tambó" y "Sangre africana" in the Teatro Principal de la Comedia.

On July 25, 1940, he presented a grand work, Tambó in negro mayor, in the Havana Amphitheater. With Gonzalo Roig conducting and Rita Montaner in the featured role, the production featured an all-city rumba group that Valdés had assembled on expeditions to various barrios of Havana, where he canvassed the bars to find the best rumberos in the area."
