Compositora mexicana convierte sus conciertos en un viaje de renovación a través del fuego

María Leonora Hernández announces a 2025 concert series titled 'A través de todo el fuego' focused on renewal through fire.
The shows are immersive, blending sound, light, and visuals to envelop the audience in the journey.
Hernández says the fire frame helps audiences experience a personal passage from darkness to light.
The concept draws on temazcales, pre-Hispanic steam baths tied to ritual and cosmology in Mesoamerica.
The concerts are designed to evolve visually, with layers of costume that drop as the show progresses.
Hernández cites music as a tool to connect people with Earth, life, and the universe.
Audience participation is encouraged, with calls to join in shouting or other rituals during performances.
The artist says her 2025 concerts aim to guide audiences from darkness toward renewal and light.
The series uses a linked narrative structure, with each concert acting as a chapter of renewal.
Hernández began playing music at 16 and credits it with saving her life amid a tough adolescence.
The project is backed by the AP News Religion team, noting collaboration with cultural bodies in Mexico City.
María Leonora’s concerts emphasize audience empathy and a shared journey through music and ritual.
