Aida Cuevas

The whole evening was extremely exhilarating. The performance by Aida Cuevas and Mariachi la Reyna de Los Angeles was wonderful.

Great Concert overall but would of loved if Aida would of sang more and more of her known songs.

I wasn't sure what to expect as this was my first time seeing her. She was incredible. Her expressions and mannerisms could translate her songs if you did not understand the words. She took the time to talk to the audience as if on Storyteller. I look forward to seeing her again at any venue....unless I am fortunate to see her at such a great venue as Valley Performing Arts Center.

This was my first time to the CSUN Performing Arts Center. It was impressive. Nice facility with good sound and pleasant staff. Free parking with admission! I brought my family with two teenagers and while we were on the younger side demographically compared to the audience, everyone enjoyed themselves. Aida's voice was magnificent and the backing of Mariachi Reyna de Los Angeles was on point throughout. The Queen of Ranchera music did not disappoint

The concert started at exactly 7:30 and the mariachi music echoed through the walls of the valley performance art center and didn't stop for the next two and a half hours. It was a night full of music delivered by an all female Mariachi Reyna de Los Angeles who beautifully accompanied the unforgettable vocal talents of the great Aida Cuevas. Her style and love of Mexico truly pay tribute to the culture that as she stated is more popular and loved in the United States that even in Mexico. The concert itself drew emotions out of people who periodically cheered, cried and joyfully validated the meaning of music by singing along to the never forgotten traditional and new mariachi songs and ballads. Music that warms your heart and makes you yearn for a yesterday that remains alive through the music. Beautiful night delivered by Ms Cuevas and Las Reynas de Los Angeles!

Ok...... so when you're in a crowd and people mention Alejandro Fernandez as an example of Mariachi music, my heart sinks. It is not that Alejandro doesn't have the voice and talent to sign Mariachi, it is just that it is not where his heart is. Alejandro has focused so much of his career to Balada and Pop that he has gotten far away from the authenticity of Mariachi like the oldies, but always goodies. Jose Alfredo Jimenez, Javier Solis, Pedro Negrete, y mujere como Flor Silvestre, la Se~nora Lola Beltran, etc. When I bought the tickets, I was afraid I would see the same low-tasting singers and performances and fortunately, I was proven wrong! Aida Cuevas and the Mariachi Reyna De Los Angeles, did a magnificent job and bringing in some of the staples and some of the less known, yet culturally rich mariachi songs. A phenomenal performance by both. If anything I have to add, is for the Mariachi Reyna De Los Angeles. I encourage the women of the Mariachi to really give it their all in their solo performances. Some shined through more than others and a few held back. You're part of an ensemble, yes, but the solo is for your performance to outshine the rest of the stage! Take it on and give the audience the pleasure of seeing a whole-hearted performance. I know you all have it in you to do that and mesmerize the audience. A great job to all. I loved it all!

I went without expectation as I'm not a fan of mariachi. You might be asking than why go well my child was part of program and couldn't missed that. When I purchase the tickets i thought it was only worth b of my child but seriously I never thought about the rest of the program. The bottom line is that it brought me back to my roots and I'm glad I gave it a tried. I didn't know who Aida Cuevas or the Angeles mariachi was and is not bc they aren't famous but rather because of my difference in taste of music. They both were awesome and a lifetime experience. Brought memories tears of joy of my mother taste of music. As a women I also took it as empowerement. If this is your first time like my is a superb experience that you should tried.

The crowd and ambience was really wonderful as the performers. It made for a beautiful night!
