Artists Perform At The 2025 Latin Recording Academy Person Of The Year™ Gala Honoring Raphael

MIAMI (NOVEMBER 12, 2025) — The Latin Recording Academy® celebrated its 2025 Person of the Year Gala honoring Raphael, with moving renditions of some of the singer’s renowned repertoire, featuring past and current Latin GRAMMY® nominees including Aitana, Pepe Aguilar, Susana Baca, David Bisbal, Enrique Bunbury, Willy Chirino, Ivan Cornejo, Kany García, Myriam Hernández, Eddy Herrera, Jesse & Joy, Carín León, Pablo López, Víctor Manuelle, Vanesa Martín, Víctor Martínez, Mestrinho, Gaby Moreno, Kiki Morente, Café Quijano, Fito Páez, Silvia Pérez Cruz, Carlos Rivera, Elena Rose, Rozalén, Ángeles Toledano and Néstor Torres.

Raphael was honored for his more than six-decade career as a multifaceted singer and performer, which has established him as a true ambassador of Latin music worldwide. The evening featured tributes from artists who have shaped his repertoire, alongside others who came to honor his lasting impact and celebrate his remarkable career.

The evening opened on a high note with a breathtaking performance by Enrique Bunbury of “Yo Soy Aquél” and was then joined by Carín León, electrifying the stage together with a medley of “Toca Madera” and “Ahora”— the latter a song Bunbury himself wrote for Raphael. Café Quijano and Gaby Moreno followed with a bolero-infused rendition of “Qué Tal Te Va Sin Mí”. David Bisbal raised the energy with a duet alongside Elena Rose on “En Carne Viva,” and then captivated the audience with a heartfelt homage performance of “Como Yo Te Amo.” Jesse & Joy joined Ivan Cornejo for an emotive tribute to “Cierro Mis Ojos.”

Pablo López kept the momentum alive with a passionate delivery of “De Tanta Gente,” followed by his intimate piano rendition of “Lo Saben Mis Zapatos.” Aitana later joined López for a moving performance of “Si No Estuvieras Tú.” Latin rock icon Fito Páez and Rozalén delivered a stirring version of “La Carta,” while Susana Baca and Rozalén offered a folkloric interpretation of “Chabuca, Limeña.” Kiki Morente, Ángeles Toledano and Víctor Martínez on the guitar offered a passionate rendition of “Digan Lo Que Digan,” fusing flamenco textures and thundering Latin percussion. Vanesa Martín and Kany García shared the stage for “Cada Septiembre,” featuring García’s debut solo cello performance, and Martín later returned with Carlos Rivera for an intimate acoustic take on “A Que No Te Vas.”

The magic continued as Pepe Aguilar and Myriam Hernández united their powerhouse vocals in a sweeping version of “Procuro Olvidarte.” Spanish songstress Silvia Pérez Cruz offered a mesmerizing “Somos” with Brazilian accordion virtuoso Mestrinho, weaving Iberian and tropical tones into one. The celebration reached its peak as Eddy Herrera, Víctor Manuelle, Néstor Torres, and Willy Chirino — who wrote the song for Raphael — took the stage with all the infectious rhythms of the Caribbean, filling the room with “Escándalo.”

The evening wouldn’t be complete without the 2025 Person of the Year stepping on stage; he wowed the audience with a medley of “Que Sabe Nadie,” “Mi Gran Noche,” and “Como Yo Te Amo.”

The highly anticipated gala preceded the 26th Annual Latin GRAMMY Awards®, which will air live from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas on Thursday, Nov. 13. The three-hour telecast will be produced by TelevisaUnivision, the leading Spanish-language media company in the world, airing across TelevisaUnivision’s U.S. platforms, beginning at 8 p.m. ET/PT (7 p.m. Central), preceded by a one-hour pre-show starting at 7 p.m. ET/PT (6 p.m. Central).

Latin Academy head of Production Ayleen Figueras, along with Macarena Moreno, served as executive producers of the gala. Latin GRAMMY and GRAMMY® winner Carlos Fernando López served as musical director, and the musical production was led by Danny Flores, also a Latin GRAMMY and GRAMMY nominee. The Philharmonic Orchestra Project (“POP”) accompanied all artists.

Live Nation served as presenting sponsor for the second consecutive year, as part of the first multi-year presenting sponsor partnership for the Person of the Year Gala.

Net proceeds from the 2025 Latin Recording Academy Person of the Year Gala will go toward the charitable work of the Latin GRAMMY Cultural Foundation®, whose mission is to be a global champion of music education and empower communities through Latin music and culture. The Foundation has fostered the next generation of Latin music creators through scholarships, education programs and grants that advance Latin music and celebrate its rich cultural heritage, and to date has donated more than $13.9 million with the support of Latin Recording Academy members, artists, corporate sponsors and other generous donors.

LAS VEGAS (NOVEMBER 10, 2025) — The Latin GRAMMY Cultural Foundation®, in partnership with Latin GRAMMY® and GRAMMY® winning producer and composer, Edgar Barrera, Latin GRAMMY nominated artist, Luis Ángel “El Flaco” and Música Mexicana recording artist, Oscar Maydon students hosted an educational experience that included a musical instrument donation to Las Vegas High School and SLAM Nevada. The session featured student performances as well as a Q&A among students and the artists in attendance, moderated by renowned journalist Grecia Lopez.

Celebrating its centennial anniversary, Las Vegas High School in Sunrise Manor, Nevada, is recognized as the longest-standing high school in the state. The school boasts a rich arts program centered on showcasing the diversity of storytelling through various mediums including the music program featuring an internationally recognized mariachi band. The investment will further enable the school to develop its music program and acquire new instruments, offering more students the opportunity to pursue the arts.

SLAM Nevada is a tuition-free, public charter school for K-12 students. The investment will allow the music program, launched five years ago, to continue flourishing, with the vision of introducing novice elementary students to music education and building enthusiasm through the curriculum as they approach middle and high school. The program will further enable the school to acquire more instruments, allowing students to take them home during the season for continued practice, thus generating added opportunities for performances.

The program was presented in partnership with the Dr. Simi Foundation and Sony Music Group, as part of the company’s Beyond The Instrument initiative. In addition, Dollar Tree joined the celebration as an Official Sponsor, with additional support from Gibson Gives and Sweetwater.

“It’s so important to give back to the next generation of music makers and encourage them to follow their dreams the same way I followed mine,” said Barrera. “That’s why I’m truly honored to partner with The Latin Recording Academy on initiatives like this, which help inspire, educate, and empower the future of Latin music.”

“Being here with these students feels special because I see myself in them. I also started dreaming just like they are, without knowing where I could go, but with a strong desire to sing and tell real stories,” said “El Flaco.” “Music taught me that the most important thing is to sing from the heart and never forget where you’re from. If there’s one thing I want them to take away from today, it’s that dreams can come true when you pursue them with passion, discipline, and humility.”

“Estar aquí con estos estudiantes es algo muy especial porque me veo reflejado en ellos. Yo también empecé soñando al igual que ellos, sin saber hasta dónde podía llegar, pero con muchas ganas de cantar y de contar historias reales”, dijo “El Flaco”. “La música me enseñó que lo más importante es cantar con el corazón y nunca olvidar de dónde vienes. Si algo quiero que se lleven hoy, es que los sueños sí se cumplen cuando los trabajas con pasión, disciplina y humildad”.

“It’s an honor to be at Latin GRAMMY In The Schools representing Mexican music,” said Maydon. “Music has given me everything, and being here in front of these students reminds me of my beginnings and the importance of never giving up. Seeing their passion inspires me to keep working and to open more doors for future generations.”

“Las Vegas High School greatly appreciates the support of the Latin GRAMMY Cultural Foundation and the instruments the Foundation provided for our students. Without this help, it would be a struggle to provide instruments and equipment for our 700 performing arts students,” said Stephen Blanco, Mariachi Director at Las Vegas High School.

“At SLAM Nevada, we are incredibly honored to receive this generous gift from the Latin GRAMMY Cultural Foundation and its partners. Our community is deeply grateful for this opportunity, which will allow our students to grow musically, find their voices, and express themselves through the power of music. This investment inspires our mission to open doors for every student to discover their talent, creativity, and confidence both inside and outside the classroom,” said the SLAM Nevada Administration Team.

“We’re grateful to all our partners for allowing us to offer this unique opportunity to the students of Las Vegas High School and SLAM Nevada,” said Raquel “Rocky” Egusquiza, Executive Director of the Latin GRAMMY Cultural Foundation. “It’s inspiring to see both institutions’ work in fostering music education at all levels, from elementary through high school. This support not only fuels their passion for the arts but also prepares them for a future in the industry.”

Since its inception, the Latin GRAMMY In The Schools program has benefited educational institutions in various cities across the United States, including Aransas Pass, Dallas, Detroit, Kansas City, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Chicago, Miami, New York, and San Antonio, as well as internationally in Buenos Aires, Argentina; Mexico City, Mexico; Panama City, Panama, Arecibo, Humacao, Yauco, and San Juan in Puerto Rico; and Sevilla, Spain.

Latin GRAMMY In The Schools is an educational program that informs and connects music students with professionals in the Latin music industry, supporting educational music departments that face financial limitations. The Foundation invites professional musicians, artists, and sound engineers to visit middle and high schools, universities, or music education institutions and share their personal stories and experiences with students, highlighting the effort it takes to overcome career obstacles. The goal is for students to learn to optimize the educational opportunities presented to them, giving them an advantage and strong academic preparation to be able to compete in the music industry.

Among the artists who have participated in this program are: Ángela Aguilar, David Bisbal, Marilina Bertoldi, Miguel Bosé, Calle 13, Pedro Capó, Camilo, Chino & Nacho, Chiquis, Luis Coronel, Silvestre Dangond, Erika Ender, Joss Favela, Fonseca, Luis Fonsi, El Fantasma, Becky G, Karol G, Kany García, Gente de Zona, Leslie Grace, Carlos Jean, Jesse & Joy, Natalia Lafourcade, Poncho Lizárraga, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Mau y Ricky, Claudia Montero, Ednita Nazario, Christian Nodal, Laura Pausini, Ángel "Cucco" Peña, Mireya Ramos, Prince Royce, Gilberto Santa Rosa, Noel Scharjris, Olga Tañón, Thalía, Christian Serratos, Diego Torres, Carlos Vives, Wisin, and Sebastián Yatra.
