The Conjunto Casino was a Cuban popular music group that carried out important work in the 1940s and 1950s, framed in the tradition of ensembles in vogue at that time in Cuba. The style of the 'Casino', more attached to the harmonies of jazz, specifically swing and bebop, was framed in the most progressive current among the sonera groups of its kind at this time. Together with the group of Arsenio Rodríguez, representing the Afro-Cuban line, the Sonora Matancera group, attached to the guaracha and the mulatto rumba, the 'Casino' formed a pattern that many groups followed from that moment as the 'Colonial' group, the Senén Suárez group, the Ernesto Grenet group, the 'Kubakán' and the 'Rumbavana' group, among others. The vocal trilogy of Faz, Rolito and Espí was joined in 1955 by another singer from the Sonora Matancera: Laíto Sureda. This vocal combination maintained high popularity by combining his presentations in dance spaces, radio and television.
