Synopsis by Betsy Boyd

Celia Cruz and Friends: A Night of Salsa features a live concert with Afro-Cuban singing sensation Celia Cruz. Performing at the Bushnell in Hartford, CT, Cruz spices up the night by changing costumes several times, donning spectacular gowns, robes, scarves, and wigs. She enlists the musical help of friends, the celebrated vocalist La India, flautist Johnny Pacheco, and jazz legend Tito Puente. Conducted by Isidro Infante, the RMM Orchestra accompanies Cruz.
