Gloria Estefan's Latin Beat
21 November 2011, Posted in: In the studio

We are now three shows into Gloria Estefan’s Latin Beat series on BBC Radio 2, which sees her journey around the world of Latin music. You can listen again to the first three shows on BBC Iplayer.

In the first two episodes Gloria played songs from her homeland Cuba, such as Beny More and Celia Cruz and traced the beginnings of the Miami music scene.

And in last week’s show Gloria looked at some of the artists who have broken through to wider audiences, and opened the doors for others to follow. Think Gilberto Gil, Carlos Santana and the legendary Jose Feliciano who Gloria interviews on the show.
