go to a concert Juan Luis Guerra and 4.40 is always a treat for the senses. Every note on stage is infectious with that Caribbean sound running through their veins.
True to his appointment with the Puerto Rican public, the Dominican singer-songwriter performed alongside his inseparable band on Saturday night after a three-year absence Jose Miguel Agrelot Coliseum of Puerto Rico filled from sod to sod. There was not a soul that resisted the sound and rhythm that have remained untouched over the years.
Each of the songs they played was a Caribbean party between the sea and the palm trees, as they dubbed this concert tour that took them to several cities in the United States and as they dubbed their latest album.
“Good evening Puerto Rico. thanks for the love Enjoy this show between sea and palm trees”were the first words of Juan Luis Guerra.
His request was granted. Some danced in the corridors, others in the back of the room and the rest swayed in their seats to each of the songs.
Juan Luis Guerra presented the concert “Between the Sea and the Palms” at the Puerto Rico Coliseum. (Alejandro Granada)Thanks to a well-woven repertoire that included “Rosalía”, “La travesía”, “Como yo”, “Kitipún”, “Pambiche de novia”, nobody wanted to hear his hits – dedicated to the love of his life , his wife Nora – among others “Niagara”, “Visa for a dream” and “For you”. Those he did not sing in full were included in a bachata medley and a salsa medley to which he was dedicated Gilberto Santa Rosa who was in the audience.
The sentiment appeared in a slow-paced version of the song “Ojalá,” which he dedicated “to a friend I love very much, Draco Rosa. Long live my friend,” he said. 4.40, supported by musicians from the patio, also had his moment to show off on “Tú” and “Como Bee to the Honeycomb”.
After two hours of concert and a party in full swing, it was time to say goodbye with “Bachata rosa” – celebrating 30 years of existence – and “La bilirubina” to close a spectacular night.
