Sony Music Latin and Primera Fila presented the second concert in a series that began last year with legendary Mexican singer Vicente Fernández. The concept is to showcase live performances of some of the biggest names in the Latin music industry, and to do so in front of a select, more intimate audience.
After selling 25 million albums, and having become a global icon with her "telenovelas", Thalía had nothing to prove, but she craved a new professional challenge and Primera Fila was the perfect stage. She wanted to solely focus on her music, nothing else.
Accompanied by 12 musicians, Thalia performed 15 live songs from some of the most influential composers of Latin America, including Juan Luis Guerra's `Cuando Te Beso' and Roberto Carlos' `Qué Será de Ti'. She also performed new songs, including "Equivocada", written by Sony's revolutionary new talent, Mario Domm, lead singer from the award-winning pop rock group Camila. One of Primera Fila's highlights was definitely her duet ("Con La Duda") with legendary Mexican singer Joan Sebastian. The performance was not only unexpected, but also brilliantly executed.
Different from anything she's ever done, Thalía's Primera Fila was a personal, raw, up-close revelation of the woman and the artist. With powerful interpretations, fan interactions and an invitation to witness the latest from one of the world's most original Latin superstars.
Throughout the night, Thalía sang with great honesty, as someone who has matured musically and has clearly evolved as an individual. More importantly, she revealed her passion for music in an environment that allowed any fan to share her great joy.

This review is from: Thalia en Primera Fila (Audio CD) I was so thrilled when I heard Thalia was releasing a live album.Because I wanted people to see what exactly makes her different from all the other mainstream-bubblegum-pop stars out there: she is a born singer.I realize in pop songs it's not very essential to show what voice is capable of but in a live unplugged show,you are naked with your voice. Listening to Primera Fila truly made me admire Thalia all over again.How many people make you feel 10 emotions at the same time through singing?
The highlights for me are Como, her cover of Que Sera De ti, Medley of her songs, Cuando Te Beso which shows off her vocal abilities becuase it's just her and the piano, and a very romantic moment Estoy Enamorado duet with Pedro Capo. Equivocada is also a very hopeful and inspiring song. I recommend this CD to anyone in the world who appreciates good music and who wants a break from all the so-called 'singers' who can't even hold a single note.You won't be disappointed. 6 of 6 people found the following review helpful: Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Thalia en Primera Fila (Audio CD) In my opinion, this CD showcases Thalia's voice in a way that none of her previous works have been able to. No overproduction, no flashy ridiculousness, just Thalia's voice, and a band. Each song is sung so exquisitely, that any doubters of her vocal talents will be left with their jaws on the floor.
There are a good mix of emotions present on this album: emotional love ballads, exciting up-tempo songs, and her typical post-break up type song. From this CD, it is obvious that she has matured as both an artist, and as a human being. She is vastly improved upon discs of the past, and in my opinion this is a MUST have. (I've been listening to it for days straight). Her duet with the great Joan Sebastian is a real treat, and for all of the old school fans, she performs a fantastic medley of hits, like Amor A La Mexicana, Piel Morena, Entre el Mar Y Una Estrella, and No Me Enseñaste. It is very refreshing to hear these great hits in a new, "unplugged" way...Read more 5 of 5 people found the following review helpful: By Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
