Boleros Con Orquesta is the second solo album by artist Rodrigo de la Cadena. It was originally intended to be released in late 2006, but because of the difficulty of schedule of his international tour it was delayed until January 2007. The bonus and final two tracks of the album were recorded only by his piano and voice in a rare studio session that took place in 2005.

Boleros Con Orquesta marks the first attempt and experiment of Bolero Big Band music by Rodrigo de la Cadena. Every musician that contributed on this album was personally chosen by Rodrigo de la Cadena himself; building his own orchestra from scratch for his new album. It includes famous international piano player Tito Enriquez.

This album also contains two poems, narrated by Rodrigo de la Cadena. It also features the first time he uses a medley of Bolero music in a studio album.
