Seville, June 7 (EFE).- Over the course of more than two decades, the participants in the television contest ‘Operación Triunfo’ have been divided between those who are looking for another path away from music or those who establish their careers thanks to their I pass through the screen. Aitana is one of the latter, one of those who, apparently, has a reel for a long future with a microphone in hand on stage.
Starting from the fact that she is only 24 years old, and that tonight in Seville, and it is the norm, her fans had the PEvAU very far on the horizon of their future, the Catalan dominates the voice, the dance and the empathy with his audience in equal parts, surely aware that his path has only begun, but that he can travel it without too many bumps.
Their ‘Alpha’ tour has begun at the Icónica SantaLucía Sevilla Fest, the festival in the Plaza de España in Seville that tonight opened its IV edition with which it was second classified, after Amaia, in Operación Triunfo in 2017, and which has the endorsement of three albums: ‘Spoiler’ (2019), ’11 reasons’ (2020), and Alpha (2023), all Platinum Records, and the last giving name to a tour in which he performs with a dozen dancers along to her dancing all as one.
“One of the most beautiful places in the world”
“It’s exciting to be here, in one of the most beautiful places in the world,” he told his very young fans, mostly girls, after giving them the first three songs of the night: ‘Los Ángeles’, ‘Two Strangers’ and ‘Berlín’. ‘. The next thing was to thank all the banners that could be seen among the thousands of cell phones that were recording the concert without any restrictions.
Officially, tonight around 12,000 people have gathered in Seville around Aitana, with many mothers and some fathers holding out for their offspring to see their favorite artist live, trying to see her from more or less up close on the impressive stage that The Icónica Sevilla Fest is installed in the heart of the Sevillian monument, helped, of course, by the three screens, a huge horizontal one on the stage, installed so that no one misses a detail of ‘Alpha’.
The night, by the way, invited you to enjoy music outdoors, although with long sleeves. Far from the dog days of recent days, Seville has received Aitana with just over 20 degrees, although her team, to prevent unnecessary heat, installed two fans on stage plugged directly into the singer.
When ‘Dararí’, ‘Aqyne’ and ‘In the car’ had been played 15 minutes into the concert, Aitana already had the audience in the pocket of her half-jeans, half-tights pants, chosen for the night. The time has come to give the dancers a rest and change the white microphone for a black one. Aitana is left alone to fill the stage singing ‘Más’: “If I love you, I love you and I love you / and because of you February hurts me too much / Where will I keep this love if you leave?”, they chant with her the 12,000.
Fans like before
In songs like these, his voice shines more, it seems more comfortable, almost in an acapella of the past, just as what he carries seems like the fan phenomenon of before, of sleeping at the door of the concert, of buying the ticket months before or crying when the singer releases her repertoire. Yes, some tears were also seen tonight in Seville, tears with a special color, like the city itself.
Aitana has also started tour, making it clear that she plans to dance however she wants, above the criticism derived from a tweet from a mother that became rivers of ink in 2023 for moving on stage as a woman in the 21st century considered. that I had to do it.
It has even shown on the screen some of the headlines that that dance “caused” in response to that phrase from that mother: “I hope Aitana apologizes for this pornographic performance,” said the tweet in question. In the middle of 2024, Aitana has responded from Seville as she knows how best to do: with Alpha. EFE
