☆ BY DANY MIRELES ☆
SILVANA ESTRADA’S PERFORMANCE AT AUDITORIO RIO 70—in Monterrey, Mexico, last Saturday was defined by intimacy—not the kind that is manufactured by dim lights or stripped back arrangements, but the kind that settles in when an artist allows herself to be vulnerable onstage. From start to finish, the show felt like a shared emotional space, where feeling carried as much weight as the music itself.
The audience understood that from the very beginning. The room was filled, yet silent, as if everyone knew that this concert was meant to be listened to closely. Estrada stepped onto the stage with a calm presence, and her voice grounded the space. There was no attempt to impress, only an invitation to sit with the songs as the concert unfolded.
Tracks like “Dime,” “Marchita” and “Tregua” formed part of the emotional core of the night. Each song arrives gently, carried by the singer’s delicate yet resolute voice. She sang these songs as if she were revisiting memories in real time, allowing every lyric to be felt.
What made the night special was the connection Estrada had with the audience; fans remained respectfully quiet throughout the show, watching as she poured her heart out song by song. Yet in a moment of recognition, the silence cracked open. Lyrics were shouted back at her with intensity, proof that her music is home to those listening. Auditorio Rio 70 itself felt like it was shrinking as the night went on. The venue transformed into something closer to a living room than a concert hall. The singer’s presence never demanded attention; she earned it quickly and completely.
The emotional peak of the night came at the very end, when Silvana closed the show with an acapella version of “El Alma Mia.” Her voice filled the room with clarity, Every note felt exposed and suspended in the air, leaving no space for distraction. The audience listened in complete silence, aware that the smallest noise could ruin the moment. When the song ended, the pause that followed was just as meaningful; it was the kind of silence that signals the understanding that something vulnerable had just been shared.
Silvana Estrada’s first sold-out show in Monterrey was not about a spectacle. It was about emotional presence, trusting an audience and the quiet power that speaks directly to the world. In a world that often demands artists for more, Estrada offered less. In doing so, she gave everything.
