A Romantic Evening in Old Mexico
One of the most enduring and beloved singers in American popular music, Linda Ronstadt has had a spectacular career, highlighted by a string of platinum-selling albums and 10 Grammy Awards spanning diverse genres, including pop, country, jazz and Latin music. In a romantic and heartfelt tribute to the classic Mexican music of her youth, Ronstadt will reunite with the world-famous Mariachi Los Camperos de Nati Cano (who captivated UCLA Live audiences last season in a stunning Day of the Dead celebration) to perform songs from her best-selling albums Canciones de Mi Padre and Más Canciones. Long recognized as one of the premier mariachi ensembles on the planet, Mariachi Los Camperos has been a driving force in mariachi music for almost 50 years. The Grammy-winning ensemble has been hailed for its innovative concerts and the visionary leadership of its founder Nati Cano. Ronstadt will also be joined by the renowned dance troupe, Ballet Folklorico Paso del Norte from El Paso, Texas in this stunning evening of classic ranchera music from Northwestern Mexico.
