Celia Cruz Desde niña he escuchado la música de la reina de la Salsa, Celia Cruz. Celia nació y se crio en Cuba, pero en realidad ella pertenecía a todos los latinos y el mundo. La Guarachera del mundo (como también se le conocía) tenía una voz fenomenal, una pasión, una humildad y un carisma fuera de este mundo. Celia fue una intérprete magnífica que siempre le dio todo a su público. A lo largo de su prolífica carrera, grabó más de 50 álbumes, ganó 7 premios Grammy y recibió una estrella en el Paseo de la fama de Hollywood. La inspiración de leer su autobiografía llego después de ver la serie Celia (en español) en Netflix. Originalmente empecé a leer el libro en inglés, pero no podía "escuchar" la auténtica voz de Celia hasta que empecé a leer el libro en español. Ahí si me pude imaginar a Celia al lado mío relatándome toda su vida. Unas de mis partes favoritas fue su anécdota sobre cómo nació su famosa frase azúcar. Celia: Mi Vida, está llena de historietas sobre su vida desde Cuba hasta los Estados Unidos. La autobiografía incluye una gran parte sobre su comienzo musical en Cuba, su tiempo con La Sonora Matancera, el amor de su vida, Pedro, y también sobre su doloroso exilio de Cuba. La autobiografía está bien escrita y llena del humor y cache inigualable de la Guarachera de Cuba. El libro también incluye un paquetón de fotos de la trayectoria de su vida. Celia colaboro con muchísimos artistas de diferentes géneros y del mundo entero. Su voz y música siempre inspirará e invitará a las futuras generaciones a celebrar y atesorar los ritmos palpitantes de la música latina. Celia Cruz fue y será siempre un orgullo latino y no cabe duda que su música vivirá para siempre. ¡Azúcaaar! My Takeaway Since I was a kid I listened to the music of the Queen of Salsa, Celia Cruz. Celia was born and raised in Cuba, but she belonged to all Latinos and the world. La Guarachera of the world (as she was also known) not only possessed a captivating singing voice, but was full of passion, humbleness, and incredible charisma. Throughout her prolific career, she recorded over 50 albums, won 7 Grammy awards and received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. I was inspired to read her autobiography after watching the series Celia (in Spanish) on Netflix. Celia: My Life, is full of vignettes of her musical life from Cuba to the United States. I originally began reading her autobiography in English, but I couldn't "hear" Celia's voice and switched to the Spanish version. Much better!! I felt as if Celia was right next to me narrating me her life. One of my favorite parts was the anecdote of how her famous phrase, azúcar came to life. The autobiography was written during the last few months of her life and includes her humble musical beginnings in Cuba, her time with La Sonora Matancera, the love of her life, Pedro, and her painful exile from Cuba. The autobiography is well written and full of Celia's unique wit and humor. The book also includes a whole lotta of photos of her musical trajectory. Celia collaborated with diverse artists of various genres and from all over the world. No doubt Celia Cruz was and will always be the Queen of Salsa and a source of Latino pride. I believe her voice and music will continue to inspire future generations to celebrate and appreciate the pulsating rhythms of Latin music. Azúcar!!! inga recensioner | lägg till en recension
For the first time in her own words comes the personal story of a life filled with heartbreaking setback and triumph, from one of the most celebrated talents the world has ever known. After Celia Cruz passed away on July 17, 2003, more than a half million people stood in line for hours in order to pay their respects, in both Miami and New York. Millions more paid tribute to her, holding impromptu memorials in living rooms and crowded street festivals throughout the world. Filled with the sound of her unmistakable voice, as fans played the songs that she will forever be remembered for, the Queen of Salsa's passing was marked with the same celebratory fervor Celia Cruz emulated throughout her life and career; a career that spanned the entire latter half of the twentieth century. Yet Celia Cruz's life had been largely mired in rumor and speculation. When she was alive, Celia Cruz never granted anyone total access to her life story and photo archive. Finally, comes a book that chronicles her own story, in her own words. From her modest childhood in Cuba to her exile years in Mexico to her remarkable career and life in America, Celia was a woman of contrasts. Her flamboyant costumes contrasted with her simple and straightforward demeanor. She was open and accessible to her fans, but staunchly private about her personal life. She was uninhibited without decadence, honest without offense, confident but not arrogant, and generous without fault. Yet above all, Celia was authentic, and it was this authenticity that resonated so deeply with her public. Based on more than five hundred hours of taped interviews recorded just months before her death, Celia includes never-before-published personal photos and anecdotes, letting fans glimpse a life that, while lived in the full view of the public, had remained largely private. Celia celebrates the soul of a life blessed with talent -- strengthened by an unquestioned work ethic as well as an unwavering faith in God and humanity -- in these, her final words to the public she adored, and who equally loved her back.
