Saúl Hernández creates music that reflects the present and is rooted in the most  telluric past. Performed live, his music is more than a concert: it is a ritual.

As a composer, he has erased geographic and generational boundaries. His songs are part of the soundtrack to the lives of millions of people in Mexico, Latin America, and the United States. People make his songs their own, turning his compositions into shared hymns. His allies (fans), who span several generations, share ideology, dreams, passions.

In April 2012 Saúl began a very unique tour, “The Memory of the Senses: Songs and Roads.” “The idea was to revisit my career as a composer. I had received many requests to explain what I meant by this song or why I wrote that one. We are approaching the songs from the perspective of the composer, something more intimate. It’s like coming home and traveling through familiar roads. I’m playing songs from 1987 to 2011. These venues are giving me the opportunity to be closer to people. I am a musician who wants to share part of his life,” he explains regarding the tour.

The tour now continues, a homecoming to those intimate halls and cultural venues that have marked his professional and personal  life. These are energetic and passionate concerts. A “magical mystery tour” through the music, as he describes it and as evidenced by the powerful and emotional concerts in Sala Nezahuacóyotl, el Museo del Chopo, el Centro de las artes del Parque Fundidora en Monterrey, Puebla, León, Chicago, Nueva York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Anaheim.

The program “¡En contacto contigo!” (In touch with you!) sponsored by the Cultural Department of UNAM (National Autonomous University of Mexico) invited Saúl to share his music with students at eight schools and faculties . It is an innovative and unprecedented campaign that seeks to provide and guarantee students free access to diverse artistic fields thus expanding their intellectual and personal development.
