On Friday, May 9, 2025, at 8 p.m., join us for a once-in-a-lifetime tribute concert to three of Mexico's most iconic musical figures -- Vicente Fernández, Juan Gabriel, and Rocío Dúrcal -- at the Magnolia Theater in El Cajon.
This special concert, titled "Tribute to Three Greats," will feature a stunning performance by Mariachi Champaña Nevin, a world-renowned ensemble led by composer and trumpeter Jeff Nevin, Ph.D., who is widely considered a leading proponent of classical mariachi music.
This unforgettable evening will transport the audience through a collection of timeless songs from these legendary artists, each performance evoking deep memories and emotions. With a 14-piece Mariachi accompanied by a 10-piece symphony orchestra, the show promises to be an emotional celebration of Mexico's musical heritage.
Mariachi Champaña Nevin, who has been performing together internationally for the past five years, will bring the sounds of Mexico to life in a unique and breathtaking way. This will be the group's first performance in San Diego this year.
Producer and promoter Javier Lugo, who grew up listening to the music of Fernández, Gabriel, and Dúrcal, has big plans to take this tribute on the road to share their unforgettable legacy with even more audiences. Mariachi Champaña Nevin's repertoire, which includes original compositions by Jeff Nevin and stunning arrangements of classic mariachi music, will be a fitting tribute to these beloved icons
