Podcast appearances and mentions of Celia Cruz

A pair of red, satin, sky-high heels that Celia Cruz, or the “queen of salsa” wore on stage is part of a new exhibit at the Smithsonian National Museum of American History. Ranald Woodaman, exhibitions and public programs director at the Smithsonian's National Museum of the American Latino, shares more about the exhibit and Cruz's lasting legacy.And, throughout the early 20th century, East Coast musicians developed a finger-picking, ragtime-style called the Piedmont blues. Singer and guitarist John Cephas and harmonica player Phil Wiggins were modern ambassadors of the genre. Smithsonian Folkways director Maureen Loughran details their influence in American music.See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.NPR Privacy Policy

Moraima Secada, una de las más grandes y olvidadas voces de la canción y el bolero, nos permite comenzar nuestro recorrido semanal por la banda sonora cubana. En estos tiempos donde la indiferencia institucional permite que valiosos archivos de la radio se pudran, con estas grabaciones históricas reverenciamos los esfuerzos de colegas ya fallecidos como Manuel Villar, Félix Riera Salas, Sigfredo Ariel, Bladimir Zamora y Felipe Morfa, quienes entregaron lo mejor de su arte en pro de la preservación y difusión de lo mejor de la cultura cubana. Acompañarán a Moraima Secada: la Orquesta Aragón; el cuarteto de Méme Solís; los pianistas Samuel Téllez y Adolfo Guzmán junto a Bobby Jiménez y el conjunto campesino "Palmas y Cañas". Volvemos al esplendor de la radio independiente con sus infinitas presentaciones en directo. Es el estudio teatro de la "Onda de la Alegría", reubicadas sus instalaciones para 1953 en la Avenida Infanta número 105. Repertorio exitoso de la Orquesta Aragón, el cantante dominicano Juan Polanco con el Conjunto Casino, Celia Cruz con la banda de Ernesto Duarte y el Beny con su banda gigante. Unos minutos junto a la obra del gran Bebo Valdés. Dos piezas sobresalientes en su prolífica carpeta autoral: "Rareza del siglo", arreglo semi sinfónico para la orquesta CMQ dirigida por Bola de Nieve, y "Güempa" a la manera del Conjunto Casino desde una emisión de nochebuena del año 1952. A continuación hacemos memoria con una de las voces pioneras del feeling y el jazz cubanos. Con su scat originalísimo Francisco Fellove Valdés, radicado en México ya a mediados de los 50, dejó huella entre sus contemporáneos destacando además como compositor. Finalizando los años 70 regresó por última vez a Cuba pudiendo efectuar, junto al Niño Rivera, algunas grabaciones. En la despedida el arte del maestro Dagoberto González. Notable violinista, arreglista y compositor, seleccionamos algunos tracks de su álbum "Convergencia", producción que vio la luz en 2022 a través del sello estatal Bis Music. Dagoberto González y "Entrecuerdas", algo para recordar.

A new podcast from Futuro is coming to you soon! In 1964, an Italian-American ex-cop and a Dominican musician in New York City opened “the Motown of Salsa,” Fania Records. Artists like Héctor Lavoe, Willie Colón, Celia Cruz and La Lupe made the label hip, rebellious, sexy and political all at once. At their height, Fania toured the world, sold millions of records and changed culture forever. But as the label grew, Fania Records became mired by legendary falling-outs. In the most comprehensive audio narrative yet, Pulitzer Prize winning Futuro Studios and Oscar and Emmy-nominated actress Rosie Perez, tell the story of a generation of artists who created salsa music, a cultural legacy that continues to shape the world today.

Acompáñanos a descubrir algunas de las colaboraciones más memorables de Willie Colón junto a Celia Cruz y Soledad Bravo, en un recorrido por registros sonoros únicos dentro de su extensa discografía.

El 21 de octubre de 2025, la reina de la salsa habría cumplido 100 años. A lo largo de su carrera, Celia Cruz grabó más de 70 álbumes y ganó 22 discos de oro, tres premios Grammy y cuatro Grammy Latinos. Pero su música fue prohibida en Cuba tras su salida del país y nunca pudo regresar. Esa fue la gran cruz con la que Celia tuvo que cargar. La cruz de Celia recoge esta experiencia y todo su legado, la homenajea y llega ahora al Teatro Calderón de Madrid. Nos visitan Óscar Gómez, productor del espectáculo y amigo personal de Celia Cruz; Pepe Rivero, su pianista y director musical de este espectáculo, y Glenda Vega, actriz y cantante. "Contamos y cantamos la vida de Celia", dice Óscar Gómez, que recuerda que Celia Cruz "repartía azúcar y alegría".Escuchar audio

Tony Sunshine opens up about his early childhood, including growing up in an abusive household and the difficult years when his mother was forced to enter the shelter system for stability for their family. He reflects on how those experiences shaped his mindset, his hustle, and his purpose. The conversation dives into the moment he discovered his voice at just five years old, singing a Menudo song at home, and how that spark led to a lifelong passion for music. Tony also addresses dropping out of school in the fifth grade and shares whether that decision impacted his journey in business and the music industry. From there, we get into his early rise, performing alongside legends like Eddie Santiago and Celia Cruz as a child, before eventually crossing paths with Fat Joe in the Bronx. Tony shares how that relationship changed his life, leading to major moments in hip-hop history, including collaborations with Big Pun and the creation of the iconic hit “100%.” We also explore deeper themes of loyalty, family, and survival, including Tony’s battle with addiction. In one of the most vulnerable parts of the interview, he reveals how he disappeared from the spotlight to detox on his own and ultimately fought his way back to health and clarity. Now at 49, Tony Sunshine is stepping into a new chapter. He talks about his latest collaboration with Lil Pump, representing Latino voices in hip-hop, and gives insight into his upcoming Spanish-language album featuring bachata, merengue, reggaeton, and more. This episode is a story of pain, perseverance, culture, and comeback. Tony Sunshine proves that no matter where you start, your voice can carry you through anything.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Wines We're Drinking Jessica: Para Wines, Vino Blanco 2023 - lemongrass, apple, citrus finish. Fresh, light, and bright. Perfect for a warm day. Erika: Sitting this one out (allergies have her hostage), but had her heart set on a Prosecco with Chambord brunch cocktail. Noted for next time. It's our April chisme session, and mi gente, we had a LOT to unpack this month. From Coachella controversies to Celia Cruz making history, Olympic ticket sticker shock, and some deeply personal highs from Jessica, including two years of marriage and a home loan approval. Pull up a glass and let's get into it. In This Episode We Cover [00:00] Welcome & Wine Check-In: Jessica's dealing with spring allergies but still showing up with a glass of Para Wines Vino Blanco 2023. Erika gives us her imaginary Prosecco-Chambord brunch cocktail. [05:00] Karol G at Coachella: The controversy unpacked. The all-female mariachi group that wasn't actually the first, the Trump-supporting ownership, vetting failures by her team, contract logistics, and why Becky G's cameo felt intentional and powerful. [17:00] Coachella Then vs. Now: How the festival shifted from music-first to influencer activations and fashion moments. The economics behind it: $29M+ paid to 150+ artists, $25M in production, and why it's only going to keep escalating. [26:00] LA 2028 Olympics Ticket Sale: Jessica secured swimming event tickets for her nephew's graduation gift. The breakdown: opening ceremony seats at $5K to $10K, the lottery system, and the plan to use only existing venues and public transportation. [34:00] The White House Correspondents' Dinner Incident: Jessica and Erika break down why they're cynical, the questions about security failures, the Stephen Miller photo moment, and a broader conversation about political theater and manufactured narratives. [43:00] The Onion Buys InfoWars: What it means that a parody site now owns Alex Jones's platform, the $1.3B judgment, and why Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens, and Megyn Kelly distancing themselves from Trump might not be what it looks like. [54:00] Celia Cruz & Rock and Roll Hall of Fame: She's a 2026 inductee and the first Spanish-language artist ever inducted. Jessica and Erika break down what her induction through the "Early Influence" category really says about how the Hall handles Latin music history. [59:00] Billboard Mujeres Latinas de la Música: Rosalía named Mujer del Año, Becky G receiving Global Impact honors. Jessica celebrates Becky G's pivot to Spanish-language music as a first-gen Mexican-American artist and what her journey means for the comunidad. [01:06:00] On a Personal Note: Jessica and Antonio celebrate two years of marriage, just got approved for a home loan, and are starting to look at houses. A beautiful reflection on life not going to plan and why that's okay at 48. [01:19:00] Wrapping Up + Listener Shoutout: The podcast is ending at Episode 300! Jessica wants to hear from you.

The nominations are in, the debates are loud, and the nerdiness is dialed all the way up—because this special episode of Friends Talking Nerdy is all about the 2026 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees!Join Professor Aubrey and Tim The Nerd as they break down this year's class with the perfect blend of deep music knowledge, passionate opinions, and just enough playful chaos to keep things interesting. From genre-defining pioneers to long-overdue legends, nothing is off-limits as they react to one of the most diverse induction classes in recent memory.They dive headfirst into the cultural impact and legacy of icons like Celia Cruz and Fela Kuti, celebrating the global influence that continues to shape modern music. Hip-hop gets its due as the duo discusses the groundbreaking careers of Queen Latifah, MC Lyte, and the legendary Wu-Tang Clan—and whether the Hall is finally catching up to the culture.Rock purists, don't worry—they've got you covered. Expect passionate takes (and maybe a few friendly arguments) about the inclusion of Oasis, Iron Maiden, Billy Idol, and the influential legacy of Joy Division / New Order. And yes, they absolutely get into the solo success and enduring popularity of Phil Collins—because you can't talk Hall of Fame without a little drum fill discourse.But it's not just about performers. Professor Aubrey and Tim The Nerd shine a spotlight on the behind-the-scenes legends who helped shape the sound of generations, including Linda Creed, Arif Mardin, Jimmy Miller, and Rick Rubin. Plus, they unpack the legacy of television pioneer Ed Sullivan and his massive influence on bringing rock and pop into living rooms across America.Of course, the conversation wouldn't be complete without honoring unforgettable voices like Luther Vandross and Sade, as well as country-rock trailblazer Gram Parsons, whose influence far outweighs his commercial success.And because this is Friends Talking Nerdy, there's a competitive twist: back in February, both hosts made their own Hall of Fame picks. Now, they revisit those predictions to see who nailed it—and who swung and missed like a drummer losing the beat mid-solo.Packed with hot takes, surprising insights, music history deep dives, and the kind of chemistry that makes every episode feel like you're hanging out with friends, this special is a must-listen for any music fan who's ever argued about what really belongs in the Rock Hall.As always, we wish to thank Christopher Lazarek for his wonderful theme song.

Esta edición analizamos la "justicia poética" del Salón de la Fama del Rock & Roll al incluir a Iron Maiden y a Celia Cruz, contrastando con el luto del rock argentino por la muerte de Felipe Staiti de Los Enanitos Verdes. Además, recorremos los 25 años de Coachella, convertido en un "altar" del pop y lo urbano, y destacamos a Medellín como epicentro de innovación tecnológica con Startco. El panorama se completa con temas diversos como el drama de Tom Dumont de No Doubt, el debate ético sobre la música generada por Inteligencia Artificial en las listas de éxitos, la introspección de Teyana Taylor y un coleccionista que desde 1984 se dedicó a grabar conciertos locales.

Lo cremoso...Avena. ¡Mal pensados!Los Güanimes celebran el sexto aniversario del Manicomio Inhabitable de la manera más inusual posible: arrancando con la dieta de Carlos, basada en los resultados más recientes que le compartió su doctora. De ahí, el viaje en el tiempo nos lleva de vuelta al 2017, cuando la conversación gira hacia los ciclones que más nos jodieron la existencia: los huracanes Dorian, Irma y María.Mientras tanto, Gustavo no suelta su cruzada contra las “posers”: esas que van al gimnasio más a modelar que a entrenar.Por otro lado, la incertidumbre alrededor del polémico proyecto “Esencia” en Cabo Rojo no ha detenido el impacto en la zona. Las propiedades ya han aumentado de valor de forma absurda, encendiendo las alarmas sobre un posible desplazamiento de residentes si la tendencia continúa.Como si eso fuera poco, el nombre del Primer Ministro de Israel vuelve a sonar en controversias relacionadas con la lista de Epstein, mientras que el actor porno Johnny Sins (sí, el calvo eterno en bata de doctor, plomero, pizzero, bombero y literalmente todo lo que termine con “reo”) sorprende al mundo con sus supuestas intenciones de entrar a la lucha libre profesional. Porque claro… ¿por qué no?Y el caos no se queda ahí: en Nebraska, una mujer secuestra a un niño y amenaza con matarlo dentro de un Walmart, mientras que en Puerto Rico, una encuesta improvisada de un periódico coloca a Captain Planet como el favorito para gobernador de la isla. Sí… así estamos.Para rematar, Celia Cruz es exaltada al Salón de la Fama del Rock & Roll 2026 junto a Billy Idol, Phil Collins y Iron Maiden.Los tiempos del fin del mundo definitivamente se están calentando.

This week, the queens trade the classic panel format for a revamped Snatch Game of Love Island, bringing their celebrity impersonations to a dating-show parody. On the runway, the category is 80s Ladies, serving up big hair, bold shoulders, and even bigger references. In the end, Nini Coco takes the win, while Kenya Pleaser and Mia Star land in the bottom two. After a lip sync to “Head Over Heels” by The Go-Go's, Mia Star is asked to sashay away. A New Snatch Game Format The queens are surprised with a format shake-up: instead of sitting behind desks, they must flirt and volley with three suitors in a Love Island-style setting. Joe questions whether the twist helped or hurt the queens, while Nathan appreciates the physicality and change in pace. Made-Up Characters vs. Real Celebrities A major discussion point: should Snatch Game always require a real celebrity? With multiple queens opting for invented personas, the debate centers on whether fictional or generic characters dilute the challenge. Standout Performances Mikey Meeks as Drew Barrymore delivers a fully realized impersonation with strong voice work and confident interaction. Jane Doe as Truman Capote gives a polished, studied performance that checks all the technical boxes. Discord Adams as The Pope splits opinion — bold and committed, though not a traditional celebrity choice. Struggles of the Week Mia Star's Bloody Mary fails to generate consistent jokes or a strong comedic premise. Kenya Pleaser's Lizzo leans heavily into blue humor without sharp punchlines. Darlene Mitchell's Mrs. Claus receives limited airtime, raising questions about just how close she may have been to the bottom. The queens pay homage to iconic women of the 1980s. Highlights include: A vibrant Celia Cruz tribute with dramatic color and presence. A recognizable Olivia Newton-John moment, complete with era-accurate styling. A Dolly Parton-inspired silhouette that captures classic 80s glamour. Kenya's runway look draws criticism for fabrication and finish, further sealing her bottom placement. Kenya Pleaser vs. Mia Star Song: “Head Over Heels” – The Go-Go's The lip sync sparks debate. While Mia delivers strong musicality and performance, Kenya survives the week — suggesting that overall challenge performance weighed heavier than the final showdown. This episode raises bigger questions about Snatch Game strategy: Is it better to play it safe with a polished impersonation? Should fictional characters be allowed? And does a disastrous Snatch Game outweigh a winning lip sync? With the competition tightening and multiple queens proving technically strong, the margins are getting thinner — and the judging decisions more controversial.

This episode of The Other Side of the Bell, featuring Mariachi trumpet performer and recording artist José Hernández, is brought to you by Bob Reeves Brass. This episode also appears as a video episode on our YouTube channel, you can find it here: "José Hernández trumpet interview" And, find the expanded show notes, transcript and more photos here   Few people have had a greater impact on Mariachi music over the past 50 years than José Hernández, and today José joins us to share his musical upbringing, his influences and education, his passion for education and some very interesting insights on balancing a professional music career with business ventures, such as his restaurants.   José is a composer, arranger, performer and recording artist, including being a key musical coordinator on Linda Ronstadt's landmark 1987 Spanish album, Canciones de Mi Padre, where he helped guide her pronunciation and the Mariachi direction of the music.   Plus, he continues to inspire younger generations through his educational programs, and founding two world-famous ensembles: Mariachi Sol de México®, and Reyna de Los Ángeles®, America's first all-female professional mariachi ensemble.   José is, relatively speaking, just down the road from us here at Bob Reeves Brass in Valencia, CA, so if you're in LA make sure to drop by both our shop and the Casa del Sol Cocina down in Irvine, for amazing food and entertainment! On Saturdays, the master could be there himself! About José Hernández: José Hernández is an internationally renowned Mariachi musician, composer, educator and cultural ambassador. He is the founder and musical force behind Mariachi Sol de México, the trailblazing Mariachi Reyna de Los Ángeles, the Mariachi Heritage Society and the Mariachi Rams, in partnership with the Los Angeles Rams.   Born on August 27, 1958, in Mexicali, Baja California, José comes from a proud lineage of mariachis and musicians, with family musical roots tracing back to the 1700s. He was named after his grandfather, José Hernández, a musician born in 1901 in Jalisco, Mexico, who helped lay the musical foundation that would inspire future generations.   In 1981, José founded Mariachi Sol de México® with a bold vision: to expand the boundaries of mariachi music and elevate the genre beyond its traditional roots in ranchera and golden-age Mexican cinema. Under his leadership, the ensemble has become a global ambassador for Mariachi, known for its musical excellence and genre-blending innovation.   Throughout his illustrious career, José has been nominated for four American Grammy Awards and nine Latin Grammys. He has collaborated with a remarkable roster of artists, including Vicente and Alejandro Fernández, Luis Miguel, Marco Antonio Solís, Lola Beltrán, Celia Cruz, Selena, Vikki Carr, Linda Ronstadt, Arturo Sandoval, José Feliciano, the City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra and The Beach Boys.   Today, José Hernández continues to perform, compose, and educate while working on his highly anticipated autobiography, which will reflect on his 50-year career and the profound impact of mariachi music on American culture and the global stage.

Romy Ancona is a DJ, trail runner, and the force behind Broken Arrow's famously joyful finish line. Born in Cozumel and now based in Colorado's Roaring Fork Valley, Romy learned to mix on a trackpad on their mom's Windows laptop before somehow landing their first gig at a Maxim Magazine party in Hollywood. These days, they split time between spinning tracks on the mountain and chasing vertical on skis and trails. In this conversation, Romy talks about shedding DJ ego, their work on Broken Arrow's inclusivity advisory council (think glitter, bubbles, and rainbow slip-and-slide dreams), and how a 2022 accident that broke their back reshaped their relationship to running. As they put it: as much as moving hurts, not moving hurts more. Plus: the lost art of the mixtape, why they watch pro paintball on the treadmill, and a running playlist spanning Celia Cruz to Limp Bizkit.

En el aniversario 17 de su fallecimiento, ocurrido el 4 de diciembre de 2007, recordamos al legendario percusionista Carlos "Patato" Valdés. Luego de formar parte del Conjunto "Kubavana" del cantante Alberto Ruiz, en 1946 pasa a integrar la sección rítmica del Conjunto Casino donde permanecerá hasta 1955 cuando decide radicar en Nueva York. Durante su etapa con el Conjunto Casino desarrolló -en el marco del formato del conjunto sonero- su avanzado concepto armónico en función del riquísimo espectro rítmico de la música cubana, pudiendo experimentar además con una serie de ideas vinculadas a la innovación de las tumbadoras. Señalaba siempre Tata Güines, otra leyenda de la percusión, que fue "Patato" el primero en utilizar dos tumbadoras con afinación para lo cual se apoyó en la invención del sistema de llaves que hoy todos conocemos. En innumerables proyectos, cubriendo una extensa trayectoria, dejó su huella junto a importantes figuras de su tiempo, entre ellas Machito, Tito Puente y Dizzy Gillespie. En la memoria Patato Valdés. Había nacido el 4 de noviembre de 1926 en La Habana, Cuba. La centenaria radio cubana nos recuerda la importancia de las emisoras independientes que, durante la primera mitad del siglo XX, contribuyeron con sus programaciones en directo a que la isla se convirtiera en plaza artística a tener en cuenta. Muy a propósito la señal continental de la CMQ, repartida en los estelares shows "De fiesta con Bacardí" y "La Pausa que refresca", nos brindará un verdadero desfile de estrellas: Josephine Baker, el grupo vocal vasco "Los Xey", el trío "Los Panchos", Luis Carbonell y los charros cantores del cine de oro mexicano: Pedro Infante y Jorge Negrete. En la despedida: Celia Cruz junto a la jazz band "Riverside".

Good morning, buenas días! Welcome back to another episode of Cafecito y Croquetas, brought to you by Stay Tranquilo & H&Co — and today's a special one…

Dernière ligne droite au Chili avant le premier tour de la présidentielle qui aura lieu ce dimanche. Selon les sondages, se trouve en tête de cette élection polarisée, la candidate du bloc de gauche, Jeannette Jara, suivie de trois candidats de droite et d'extrême droite. Aucun des huit candidats en lice ne remporterait le scrutin dès dimanche ; il y aurait, donc, un second tour en décembre. À quelques jours du vote, chacun jette ses dernières forces dans la bataille. Hier soir, (10 novembre 2025) avait lieu le dernier débat à la télévision. Naïla Derroisné, notre correspondante à Santiago, l'a suivi.   La « carcel del encuentro », prison de haute sécurité en Équateur En Équateur, une nouvelle prison de haute sécurité est entrée en service hier, dans la province de Santa Elena, dans l'ouest du pays. Trois cents prisonniers, parmi les plus dangereux que compte le pays, y sont désormais détenus. Il n'y a pas eu d'inauguration officielle de la « carcel del encuentro », souligne le site Primicias.  Le gouvernement a décidé d'accélérer le mouvement suite aux affrontements qui ont lieu dimanche dans la prison de Machala, dans le sud-ouest du pays. Affrontements qui ont fait 31 morts et qui ont éclaté en réaction justement aux futurs transferts dans cette nouvelle prison, explique El Universo. Cette prison qui est gérée et surveillée par la police et l'armée, pas par l'administration pénitentiaire, comme le souligne El Mercurio, est une copie du Cecot, l'établissement pénitentiaire de haute sécurité, construit au Salvador et critiqué en raison de violations des droits humains, explique Primicias. La « carcel del encuentro » compte 800 places. Elle est protégée par six miradors de 9,50 m de haut, un mur de 9 mètres, et des brouilleurs d'internet et de téléphone, y compris satellitaire. C'est simple, les détenus n'auront aucun contact avec l'extérieur. Aucun contact entre eux non plus. La prison dispose d'un système de vidéosurveillance qui surveille en permanence, avec l'intelligence artificielle, le comportement des prisonniers, précise le journal Metro. À Cuba, le procès de l'ex-ministre de l'Économie commence aujourd'hui C'est à travers un bref communiqué de la Cour suprême lu pendant le journal de Canal Caribe hier midi que l'information a été dévoilée. Une annonce, la veille de l'ouverture du procès, alors qu'Alejandro Gil, ministre de l'Économie et de la planification de 2018 à 2024, accusé notamment d'espionnage et de corruption, est le plus haut fonctionnaire jamais traduit en justice à Cuba au cours de ces dernières décennies, s'étonne 14ymedio. Sa famille n'était pas au courant et ne sait pas si elle pourra assister à l'audience, ajoute le site qui s'est entretenu avec sa sœur. Contrairement à ce qu'avaient demandé les proches d'Alejandro Gil, le procès aura lieu à huis clos, souligne 14ymedio. La Cour suprême n'a pas spécifié combien de temps il durerait, ni si l'ancien ministre sera jugé pour l'ensemble des faits qui lui sont reprochés. Pas plus de précisions sur les preuves dont elle dispose, insiste le site indépendant qui rappelle que ce manque de transparence dans les affaires judiciaires, c'est la norme à Cuba. À La Havane, un hommage à Celia Cruz, la reine de la salsa Cette soirée, qui devait avoir lieu initialement le 19 octobre pour le centenaire de la naissance de la chanteuse, mais qui a été interdite par le régime, s'est finalement déroulée dimanche soir. C'était « spectaculaire », selon Reinaldo Escobar, le journaliste de 14ymedio, qui y était et semble avoir été emporté comme tout le public. « On a dansé, on a applaudi, on en a profité », écrit-il. Celia Cruz « symbolise la part la plus optimiste, sensuelle et festive de l'âme cubaine, tellement maltraitée par des décennies de sévérité feinte et de discours publics qui exaltent la rancœur et la haine de l'autre », poursuit le journaliste. Pour certains des participants, cette soirée était exceptionnelle parce que c'était la première fois qu'ils écoutaient des chansons de Celia Cruz hors de chez eux. Cette soirée avait un petit goût de « rébellion, de quelque chose que l'on fait même si les chiens de la censure aboient tout près, vraiment tout près », poursuit 14ymedio. Et quant aux répercussions, aux conséquences pour les organisateurs de cette soirée, on va reprendre les mots d'une femme qui a dansé toute la nuit : « On verra bien demain ». Haïti : reprise des connexions entre Miami et Les Cayes Comme chaque mardi, Anne Cantener est en ligne avec Gotson Pierre, directeur de l'agence haïtienne Alterpresse. Avec lui, elle évoque la reprise des vols internationaux aux Cayes, dans le sud d'Haïti, la situation à Tabarre où un « calme relatif » règne après une opération policière, et les promesses d'aide financière et logistique du Qatar. De retour, le président du Conseil, président de transition, s'est entretenu avec la presse haïtienne hier. Selon lui, le Qatar va débourser 44 millions de dollars pour soutenir la Force de lutte contre les gangs, la santé, le logement, l'entrepreneuriat et l'organisation d'élections en 2026. Dans un article à la Une de son site, Alterpresse se penche d'ailleurs sur ce futur scrutin tant attendu. Les forêts du Panama Alors que la COP 30 commence difficilement et sans grandes ambitions au Brésil, notre dossier du jour nous emmène dans les forêts du Panama. Elles représentent plus de la moitié du territoire et sont presque toutes protégées. Il existe, par exemple, un label sur la gestion durable des forêts délivré par l'ONG Forest Stewardship Council. Elle vient de tenir une assemblée générale et notre correspondant Grégoire Pourtier y était. Le journal de la 1ère Le patron de l'Office national anti-stupéfiants est en Martinique.

This episode of The Other Side of the Bell, featuring trumpeter, vocalist, composer and percussionist Pete Rodriguez, is brought to you by Bob Reeves Brass. This episode also appears as a video episode on our YouTube channel, you can find it here: "Pete Rodriguez trumpet interview"   About Pete Rodriguez: Trumpeter, vocalist, and percussionist Pete Rodríguez carries the bloodline of Nuyorican salsa as he takes his unique brand of jazz to exciting new places. Son of salsa singer Pete "El Conde" Rodriguez and godson of Fania Records bandleader Johnny Pacheco, Rodríguez cut his teeth playing with some of the greatest names in Latin music. By age 19, he was musical director of his father's band. As a vocalist, he sang on Tito Puente's Grammy-award winning Mambo Birdland. As an instrumentalist, he's appeared with legends including Celia Cruz, Chico O'Farrill, Bebo Valdez and Eddie Palmieri, including performing on the Brian Lynch/Eddie Palmieri Project's Grammy-winning release, Simpatico. As a bandleader, Rodriguez draws on his diverse upbringing—including living through the birth of Hip Hop in the Bronx and becoming an accomplished classical trumpeter during his adolescence in Puerto Rico—to create his own brand of jazz that defies categorization. The result is music that has been praised as "not only instrumentally ferocious, but texturally rich and at times profoundly intimate," with compositions "rich in musical depth, tone and beauty, as well as rhythm and melody… giving his music an appeal beyond genres." (Downbeat). His music demonstrates his aptitude for hard-driving, modern post-bop jazz, as much as melodic Latin variants and R&B-tinged grooves. Rodriguez has released a series of acclaimed albums as a leader, including Mind Trip, The Alchemist, Caminando con Papi (Destiny Records), El Conde Negro (Destiny Records), Obstacles (Sunnyside Records), and his most recent, I'm Pete Rodríguez, Vol. 1 (Sunnyside Records), named one of the Best of 2024 by the New York City Jazz Record. His forthcoming I'm Pete Rodríguez, Vol. 2 continues his exploration of identity, resilience, and innovation. "As a bandleader he's working on a clean, complex and flexible model of modern Latin jazz … his compositions change shape and character, according to the free flow of the arrangements, among art song and swing and clave. Draped over all of it is Mr. Rodriguez's powerful playing, soft-toned but battling." – The New York Times   Episode Links: peterodriguezmusic.com Pete on Instagram (@prodriguezmusic) on YouTube (@peterodriguezmusic) on Facebook (@prodriguezmusic)   Upcoming Events: Greg Black Mouthpieces, November 7 & 8 North Carolina Music Educators Association Conference, November 9 & 10 Book your alignment here!   Podcast Credits: "A Room with a View" - composed and performed by Howie Shear Podcast Host - John Snell Cover Photo Credit - Pete Rodriguez Audio Engineer - Ted Cragg

Envía tu comentarioHace veinticinco años, un periodista entrevistó a Evelio Landa, compositor popular de boleros, sones y guarachas, entre otros géneros cubanos. En aquel diálogo, publicado entonces en La Habana, Evelio recordó sus comienzos en la música y vivencias que marcaron su vida y su obra.¿Sabías que Benny Moré le grabó tres piezas musicales? También le grabaron, entre otros, Celio González y Celia Cruz.Todos ellos, y otras figuras, convirtieron a un modesto empleado de un cine en alguien muy conocido en el ambiente musical cubano.Más detalles, en este episodio.En el acostumbrado Calendario Musical de Cuba, los recuerdos de Abelardito Valdés, autor de un famosísimo danzón; del flautista Joseíto Valdés, y del maestro Ernesto Duarte.Support the show¡SUSCRÍBETE!: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1702252/subscribe

Hay voces como ceibas que, con sólo dejarse escuchar, son Cuba en cualquier rincón del planeta. Celia Cruz es una de ellas. Una mujer con voz de ceiba frondosa y altura de palma. Más cubana, imposible. Y es que hay en la majestuosa altura de las palmas una esencia poderosa, la de contemplar desde lo alto todo lo que el implacable tiempo se lleva, incluídos a quienes no la honran ni la merecen. Asomándonos a su centenario, es un gusto volver a la hondura de su huella universal. Nacida en La Habana el 21 de octubre de 1925, con mucho sentimiento y verdad, representando lo más genuino de nuestra cultura en todos los escenarios posibles, completó una de las trayectorias artísticas más luminosas de la música popular cubana. Parte de su inmenso legado sonoro nos acompaña hoy, así como las valiosas palabras de la investigadora y escritora Rosa Marquetti. Con dos magníficos trabajos: "Celia Cruz en Cuba, 1925-1962" y, más recientemente, "Celia en el mundo", Rosa ha recorrido minuciosamente la obra de vida de "La Guarachera de Cuba", reafirmando la solidez de su carrera artística y, al mismo tiempo, develandonos la humanidad de una mujer de legado universal. Celia ya era una leyenda de la MPC a comienzos de los años 60. Durante la década anterior había conquistado los más variados escenarios junto al conjunto "Sonora Matancera" y otras agrupaciones de importancia. Ya en los primeros 70 comenzó a ser una de las figuras más visibles de la llamada "salsa". Con su voz clara y potente, gracia y sabor únicos, continuó defendiendo los más raigales géneros de su tierra: la guaracha, el guaguancó, el son montuno, la conga y el bolero que, entre muchos otros, y a la par de otros ritmos del Caribe y Latinoamérica, encontraron siempre en el poderío de su voz abrigo inigualable. Dos temas cruciales en la discografia de Celia de comienzos de la década de los 80, resonando con su pensamiento democrático y progresista. Del cubano Titi Soto: "Latinos en Estados Unidos" y del boricua Tite Cure: "Isadora Duncan". Unos minutos en tiempo de bolero. Celia Cruz, con la complicidad de Pete Conde Rodríguez y Cheo Feliciano, nos devuelve : "Preferí perderte" de Ángel Lores, y "Encantado de la vida" , de Justi Barreto. "Vieja Luna" y "No me hables de amor" de los pianistas Orlando de la Rosa y Ñico Cevedo. Como una autentica diosa, a cien años de su natalicio, Celia Cruz repite la proeza de cantar cada día mejor. "La Guarachera de Cuba", la "Reina Rumba", o "La Reina de la Salsa" fueron títulos que espontáneamente le concedió el público de todas las latitudes. El mismo al que cautivó en cada una de sus presentaciones, entregando alma y corazón al conjuro del más dulce, vibrante y encendido grito de batalla: "Azúcar...." El guitarrista, arreglista y compositor Pavel Urkiza nos acerca un formidable homenaje a Celia: "La bandera que canta".

Hablamos en Bogotá con el penalista Francisco Bernate y con el analista Camilo Granada; en Roma con la ex corresponsal de la Agencia France Presse Kelly Velásquez, y en Miami con el historiador de la salsa César Miguel Rondón

(Centenario del Nacimiento de Celia Cruz) «Además del gran tesoro de grabaciones que realizó en tantísimos años que vivió en el escenario, Celia dejó establecida La Fundación Celia Cruz... cuyo propósito es ayudar a los niños de bajos recursos a estudiar música y [apoyar] a las instituciones que se dedican a combatir el [cáncer, ese] terrible mal que lamentablemente le dio fin a su vida y a la de su mamá.» Así comienza Omer Pardillo-Cid su reflexión sobre el legado que dejó la famosa «guarachera de Cuba» en su epílogo a la autobiografía de Celia Cruz titulada: Celia: Mi vida. «Aparte de la fundación, Celia Cruz dejó un ejemplo a seguir de lo que debe ser el comportamiento de un artista o un famoso —continúa Pardillo—. Ella daba sus consejos, cuando se le solicitaban, con la misma generosidad y sinceridad que daba su cariño.... [A los] muchos artistas jóvenes y a aquellos que ya habían hecho su nombre sonar por todas partes... Celia les decía: »“No se olviden nunca que ese público que está ahí es el que nos paga.... Los empresarios y los sellos viven del artista, pero el artista vive de su público. Entonces, lo más importante en la vida de un artista siempre debe ser el amor y el respeto al público. Sin esas dos cosas, no se puede ser agradecido con ellos, y si no se les agradece, no se quedan con nosotros. »”¿Cómo le demuestra un artista respeto a su público? Tratándolo de la misma manera que el artista quiere que se le trate.... [Es que] cuando uno se hace famoso, es muy fácil pensar que lo hizo uno sólo o que se lo merecía por su talento, o su belleza o cualquier otra cosa por el estilo. Pero eso no es verdad.... Por eso digo yo que el que no pueda ni quiera hacerlo de esta manera, mejor que ni se meta.” »Celia era enemiga de los guardaespaldas que golpean o maltratan a la gente que trata de acercársele a un artista.... Nunca tuvo guardaespaldas porque nunca los necesitó. Ella se hacía respetar y se dejaba querer. Y donde hay un verdadero amor, no hay temor…1 »[Esa] filosofía... vino a reflejarse maravillosamente en la pompa y serenidad de su velorio», concluye Omer Pardillo.2 Durante treinta y dos de los mismos años en que Celia estaba cobrando cada vez más fama por su música llamativa, el Hermano Pablo llegó a ser también famoso en todo el mundo hispanohablante por sus más de diez mil Mensajes a la Conciencia difundidos por radio y televisión. Y para este servidor que lo sucedió y lo observó de cerca durante los últimos diecisiete años de su vida ejemplar, es muy interesante comparar la filosofía del Hermano Pablo sobre su público con la filosofía de Celia. Puedo asegurar, como testigo ocular, que él mostraba— sin falta— amor, cariño y respeto por su público, fuera cual fuera su condición social. Sin necesidad de guardaespaldas, él escuchaba, mirándole a los ojos, a cada uno que se le acercaba, como si esa persona fuera la más importante del mundo. Es que practicaba lo que predicaba, que es precisamente lo que aconseja Celia y que tanta falta hace que hagamos los demás: vivir conforme a la regla de oro que estableció Jesucristo, el Hijo de Dios, de tratar a los demás de la misma manera como queremos que nos traten a nosotros.3 Carlos ReyUn Mensaje a la Concienciawww.conciencia.net 1 1Jn 4:18 2 Celia Cruz con Ana Cristina Reymundo, Celia: Mi vida (New York: HarperCollins, 2004), pp. 242-45. 3 Mt 7:12

On January 8, 1959, Fidel Castro and his ragtag army marched into Havana and proclaimed victory in the Cuban revolution. Much of the world knew Cuba primarily from its 1930 megahit "El Manicero" ("The Peanut Vendor") and from the mambo craze of the 1950's. After Castro came to power, the economic, political and cultural doors between Cuba and the U.S. would soon be shut. The doors opened briefly for tours by Cuban artists in the U.S. during the Carter and Clinton administrations. In this broadcast, we savor sounds from the pre-Revolutionary golden age of Cuban music that sets the scene for the international success of Cuban music. We illustrate how popular music in Africa and the Americas is not imaginable without the influence of Cuban music--copied and adapted on three continents. We'll hear the stories and rare recordings of such core styles as son - as well as luminaries like Beny Moré, Arsenio Rodriguez, Celia Cruz and the Sexteto Habanero; along with less well known artists.
