En el centenario de su nacimiento, celebremos el legado incomparable de la Reina de la Salsa.
En los años 60, Celia Cruz comenzó una nueva vida lejos de su Cuba natal, el lugar que la vio brillar por primera vez. Exiliada y con el corazón dividido entre la melancolÃa y la esperanza, Celia decidió conquistar escenarios que antes parecÃan imposibles. Paso a paso, y a lo largo de más de cuatro décadas, Celia forjó una carrera extraordinaria basada en talento, carácter, visión y su emblemático Azúcar!
Celia en el mundo (1962-2003) es una obra apasionada y meticulosamente investigada que explora la vida profesional de Celia. Desde sus vibrantes años con Fania All Stars y el arrollador éxito de la salsa en Nueva York, hasta sus colaboraciones con gigantes de la música afrocubana, los ritmos latinos y el jazz, este libro es un testimonio de la energÃa y alegrÃa de Celia.
Fiel a sus raÃces, supo ganarse el apoyo del público al permitirles ver la fuerza y resiliencia de una diáspora obligada a reinventarse.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
On the centennial anniversary of her birth, celebrate The Queen of Salsa's incomparable legacy.
In the 60s, Celia Cruz began a new life away from her native Cuba, the place that saw her shine for the first time. Exiled and with her heart divided between melancholy and hope, Celia decided to conquer stages that had once seemed impossible. Step by step, and spanning over four decades, Celia forged an extraordinary career based in talent, character, vision, and her emblematic Azúcar!
Celia en el mundo (1962-2003) is a passionate and meticulously researched work that explores Celia's professional life. From her vibrant years with Fania All Stars and the sweeping success of salsa in New York, to her collaborations with music giants of Afro-Caribbean, Latin beats, and jazz, this is a testament to Celia's energy and joy.
Loyal to her roots, she knew how to earn the public's support by allowing them to see the strength and resilience of a diaspora forced to reinvent itself.
