For the first time ever, the Latino music show, “Luz de las Naciones,” had to be broadcast instead of before a live audience because of COVID-19 restrictions.
But as Newsline reporter Lizeth Vejar tells us, the performers and spectators say they enjoyed the socially distanced experience.
More than 1,000 people put on Luz de las Naciones: producers, singers, dancers, band/instrument players and hosts all from Latin American and Spanish countries.
They do it to express their culture, traditions and values through music.
This pandemic did not stop anything due to technology. This year, families enjoyed this show from the comfort of their homes. A different spacing, but the same spirit.
