Giancarlo Guerrero Appears on Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl Halftime Show
By Francisco SalazarGiancarlo Guerrero made a surprise appearance at Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl Halftime Show.
The Costa Rican conductor appeared conducting “Monaco” and became the first classical musician to be featured in the Halftime show since Gustavo Dudamel in 2016.
In the show, Guerrero was seen conducting a group of young string players and noted in a press release that he himself did not grow up with classical music in the house. His father loved mariachi, and his mom loved Julio Iglesias.
Guerrero said, “Bad Bunny is a multi-talented artist who plays so many kinds of Hispanic music. It doesn’t just feel familiar, the music feels like home. It was quite an amazing experience to be a part of. There are so many brilliant artists involved with the creation of this show and it was beyond inspiring to work with them and watch it all come together. How exciting to be a part of it all!”
“Both my daughters and wife are huge fans of Bad Bunny,” Guerrero added. “If I wouldn’t have jumped at this opportunity, they would never have forgiven me!”
Following the performance, Guerrero shared a picture with Bad Bunny stating,” What an experience this has been!”
Guerrero serves as Music Director of Sarasota Orchestra, the Artistic Director and Principal Conductor of the Grant Park Music Festival in Chicago, and the Music Director Laureate of the Nashville Symphony.
The conductor next performs in Berlin, Nashville, Lisbon, Sarasota, Atlanta, and Wrocław.
