  The discussion of the 70-plet of negative parity baryons illustrates the
large Nc QCD approach to orbitally excited baryons. In the case of the l=1
baryons the existing data allows to make numerous predictions to first order in
the SU(3) symmetry breaking. New relations between splittings are found that
follow from the spin-flavor symmetry breaking. The Lambda(1405) is well
described as a three-quark state and a spin-orbit partner of the Lambda(1520).
Singlet states with higher orbital angular momentum are briefly discussed.
