Rhythms of the World

on BBC Two England

Celia Cruz with Tito Puente and His Orchestra
The Queen of Salsa teams up with the King, in a spectacular performance filmed at the Apollo Theater in New York. Combining Cuban rhythms, glamour, verve and sass, the dynamic voice of Celia Cruz has thrilled audiences all over the world for decades. She has been compared with Aretha Franklin, Sarah Vaughan, and Ella Fitzgerald, but to Hispanics in America she is little less than a goddess, and she still sings the chants of Cuba's ancient Santerra religion. With special guest Johnny Pacheco.
