Condoleezza Rice, Former US Secretary Of State, Duets With Aretha Franklin

July 28, 2010
Condoleezza Rice, Former US Secretary Of State, Duets With Aretha FranklinFormer US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice duetted with Aretha Franklin at a concert in Philadelphia last night (July 27).

Rice accompanied the veteran soul singer on piano during the three-hour fund-raising concert for urban children.

The ex-politician, who is a classically trained pianist, and Franklin thrilled the audience with renditions of 'My Country' and 'I Say A Little Prayer'.

But critics were left divided, with the Washington Post saying the collaboration had “a kind of goofy brilliance".

According to The Guardian, Franklin told the audience: "We decided to give it a try. So here we are, in the city of Brotherly – and Sisterly – Love."

Rice, a Republican, has previously performed with cellist Yo-Yo Ma.
