Siempre estoy pensando en el ayer: Oh, I believe in yesterday - Chapter 4

The finale reveals the cultural and emotional impact of the first four historic concerts at the Palace. Through testimonies from National Symphony Orchestra musicians, we discover how audiences and artists themselves experienced a transformative moment, especially during the performance of "Hasta que te conocí" and the emotional "Amor eterno" on Mother's Day. We also reveal the story of the tablecloth autographed by Juan Gabriel that María treasured until losing it in a personal tragedy. The episode reflects on the legacy of these concerts that opened Bellas Artes' doors to popular culture and poses the question of which other popular artists would now deserve this stage.
