Blades said Cruz's music and the legacy she left behind would live on Cuban Salsa Queen Celia Cruz Dies at 77
Jul 16, 9:53 PM EST
Celia Cruz, who went from singing in Havana nightclubs to become the "Queen of Salsa," died Wednesday, her publicist said
She recorded more than 70 albums and had more than a dozen Grammy nominations She is simply irreplaceable and it's just an honor to know that she was a part of my life
"Celia Cruz could take any song and make it unforgettable
Her alliance with fellow salsa star and "Mambo King" Tito Puente resulted in some of the biggest successes in her career She won best salsa album for "La Negra Tiene Tumbao" at last year's Latin Grammy Awards, and won the same award at this year's Grammy Awards
"The real death begins when you forget," he said
â€â€?â€â€?â€â€?
On the Net:
http://www She dazzled listeners with fiery songs such as "Quimbara "With Celia, even the most simple of songs became injected with her personality and her vigor She later studied music at the Havana Conservatory and performed at the world-famous Tropicana nightclub At last year's Latin Grammys, she showed up wearing a frothy blue-and-white headpiece and a tight red dress and gave a hip-shaking performance
"She became a symbol of quality and strength, and she became a symbol of Afro-Cuban music," Blades said
She transcended the material," Blades told The Associated Press in a phone interview Wednesday night , according to her publicist, Blanca Lasalle
Cruz also received a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Smithsonian Institution and in 1994, President Clinton honored her with an award from the National Endowment for the Arts She died at her home in Fort Lee, N
In the 1950s, Cruz became famous with the legendary Afro-Cuban group La Sonora Matancera She left Cuba after its 1959 revolution for the United States in 1960, and never returned celiacruzonline "
Cruz dazzled not only with her voice but also her personality "
"I don't think you could hear anything she ever did and be indifferent," he said Thank you, Celia, for teaching all of us that life should be lived with much `Azucar!'"
Pop and salsa singer Marc Anthony, a friend who recently paid tribute to Cruz at a gala concert, said in a statement: "We are witnessing the end of an era J The word, which means sugar in Spanish, became her catch phrase after a waiter apparently asked her, to her surprise, if she wanted sugar in her coffee "
â€â€?â€â€?â€â€?
Editor's note: AP Music Writer Nekesa Mumbi Moody contributed to this article "You couldn't be a fan of Celia and not be a fan of Afro-Cuban music, because she was Afro-Cuban music "No one is going to forget Celia Always flashing a wide smile, the entertainer gave a highly energetic stage show, punctuated often by her trademark shout, "Azucar!" in the middle of a song Among her other best-known recordings are "Yerberito Moderno" and "Que le Den Candela
Ruben Blades, a frequent collaborator and friend, called Cruz a classy icon whose dynamic performances became her trademark The two recorded albums and regularly performed together, and they were considered legends of the genre
Cruz, who was 77, died of a brain tumor She had surgery for the ailment in December but her health faltered
She was also a member of the Fania All-Stars, the Afro-Cuban music collective that recorded for the Fania record label in the 1970s, along with Blades and Willie Colon
Cruz studied to be a teacher in her native Havana, but was lured into show business when a relative entered her in a radio talent contest, which she won
With her powerful voice and flamboyant stage shows, Cruz helped bring salsa music to a broad audience
The Recording Academy and Latin Recording Academy issued a statement Wednesday that read in part: "One of Latin music's most respected and most revered vocalists, Celia Cruz was an icon of salsa, tropical and Latin jazz music "
Blades noted that although she was typically the only woman excelling in the salsa field, she was never intimidated "
Called the "Queen of Salsa" and the "diva of Latin song," Cruz remained energetic late into her career, popular with young audiences as well as old
"She was a proud woman in a male-dominated business where she excelled because she had class herself," he said
In 1987, she was honored with a star on Hollywood's Walk of Fame, and several years later, the city of Miami gave Calle Ocho, the main street of its Cuban community, the honorary name of Celia Cruz Way com/
Her husband, trumpeter Pedro Knight, was at her side; the pair had celebrated their 41st wedding anniversary on Monday, Lasalle said
