Romance, religion, and genres in avant-garde classical style. It debuted at number one on five Billboard charts, including top Latin albums and classical albums, making her the first Spanish-born woman to hit. That mark in the modern era, she's also Billboard's 2026 Latin Woman of the Year, a huge nod to her fearless creativity. The album features sweeping orchestral arrangements and songs sung in 13 languages, showing off her global reach and artistic depth.
