About this listen
The story of how María Esther Pozo navigated the complex labyrinths of power to make the concert a reality. After her boss's rejection, she discovers that President Salinas's wife, Cecilia Occelli, is a Juan Gabriel fanatic and uses this connection to secure presidential approval. The episode reveals tensions between conservative intellectuals who considered the concert "the end of Bellas Artes" and figures like Carlos Monsiváis, who publicly endorsed the event. It also explores the project's financial aspects and how Juan Gabriel agreed to donate his earnings to benefit the National Symphony Orchestra.
