La agenda papal [/e] will be accompanied by two of the most prominent voices of the country's folklore: Nahuel Pennisi and Luciano Pereyra. The singer from Luján will perform at the closing mass on November 11, while Pennisi will do so on November 9 at the Monument to the Spaniards in Palermo. The visit, scheduled from November 8 to 11, carries the motto "Welcome everyone. Go and announce".

Pennisi en un escenario con memoria

El lunes 9, a las 11.30, Pennisi ser will perform at the Monument to the Spaniards, a site that hosted John Paul II during his visit to Argentina in 1982. The venue adds historical weight to an emotional milestone for the artist, who connected the performance to his latest album, dedicated to Mercedes Sosa.

“Cantar ante el Santo Padre en mi país es una bendición y un honor inmenso para mí por lo que representa en mi vida. Soy muy creyente y jamás imaginé poder compartir nuestra música en un escenario tan imponente, justo en este momento donde estoy abrazando el repertorio de nuestra querida Negra Sosa; le da un sentido espiritual y cultural muy profundo a esta presentación.”Nahuel Pennisi

Pereyra, meanwhile, takes the stage on Wednesday 11 at the Basilica of Our Lady of Luján, his birthplace. The mass will be held outdoors in front of the sanctuary, with an expected attendance of between one million and two million faithful. For the singer, the call carries a deeply personal meaning: the news was confirmed during his eighth performance at the Movistar Arena.

“Me acaban de confirmar que en mi ciudad, en la ciudad de Luján, le voy a cantar al Papa. ¡En mi ciudad de Luján, en donde vivo, viene un Papa! Poder recibirlo, poder cantarle, poder cantarle todos juntos!”Luciano Pereyra

La: la conexión de Luján con Roma

• Pereyra interpretará "Si no es contigo", primer adelanto de su próximo material discográfico.
• El tema abre una etapa de raíces folklóricas con sonoridad pop.
• En 2000, con 18 años, el cantante-hookers cantó "Solo le pido a Dios" ante Juan Pablo II en la Jornada Mundial de la Juventud, en Roma.

There is also a symbolic continuity in the fact that the visit of León XIV will be the first by a pope to Argentina since Juan Pablo II's trip in 1987. And while the country will once again witness a historic papal event, this time the music will be especially central: the repertoire of Pennisi and Pereyra will accompany the meeting in Palermo and the closing mass in Luján. To me, that is precisely what makes this visit so moving: not only the importance of the occasion, but also the presence of two artists who know how to turn emotion into song.
