Join the San Antonio Philharmonic for an unforgettable musical celebration with Juan Gabriel: A Philharmonic Tribute, taking place at the historic Scottish Rite Hall on September 12 and 13 at 7:30 PM, and September 14 at 2:30 PM.
This special concert honors the enduring legacy of Juan Gabriel, Mexico’s most beloved composer and performer. Known for his rich songwriting and emotional depth, Juan Gabriel’s music has transcended generations and borders, becoming a vital part of Latin American cultural identity. Juan Gabriel is affectionately called "El Divo de Juárez," and was born in Parácuaro, Michoacán. Gabriel rose to fame after starting his career as Adán Luna, enchanting audiences in humble bars. His first hit, "No Tengo Dinero," marked the beginning of an illustrious journey where he touched millions with heartfelt songs like "Amor Eterno," "Querida," and "El Noa Noa."
With over 47 albums and a timeless legacy, Juan Gabriel became a beacon of Latin music, sharing his passion with the world and always remembering his roots by giving back to the community he loved.
The San Antonio Philharmonic brings his timeless music to life with the backing power of a full symphony orchestra, creating a moving tribute that bridges popular music and classical expression. The concert will be led by Award-winning conductor Felipe Tristán, whose visionary artistry and genre-blending interpretations have garnered international acclaim. Most recently honored with the 2024 Muzyczne Orły (Music Eagles) Award in Poland, Tristán is celebrated for his ability to connect diverse musical worlds. Following the success of his recent tribute to Selena, he now brings his passion for Mexican cultural storytelling to the San Antonio Philharmonic stage.
