Oprah Winfrey found herself alone in the Sphere, trying to make sense of what she had witnessed after U2's opening performance in 2023.

Oprah Winfrey se encontraba sola en el Sphere, tratando de comprender lo que había presenciado tras la actuación de apertura de U2 en 2023.

Fascinated by the multisensory event, the Queen of All Media had a thought: Could she use the revolutionary, 4D capabilities of the globe-shaped arena to help others reach their full potential?

Fascinada por el evento multisensorial, la Reina de Todos los Medios tuvo un pensamiento: ¿Podría usar las capacidades revolucionarias y 4D de la arena con forma de globo para ayudar a otros a alcanzar su máximo potencial?

"You could use this technology as a visual and immersive experience that allows people to delve deeper into themselves and leave with a sense of awe and wonder about what it means to be alive," said the media mogul, whose empire was built largely on inspiring viewers of "The Oprah Winfrey Show."

"Podrías emplear esta tecnología como una experiencia visual e inmersiva que permita a las personas profundizar por sí mismas y marcharse con una sensación de asombro y maravilla sobre lo que significa estar vivo", dijo la magnate de los medios, cuyo imperio se construyó en gran medida inspirando a los espectadores de "The Oprah Winfrey Show".

"I know there is more, and that more could well help people see themselves differently.

"Sé que hay más, y ese más bien podría ayudar a las personas a verse a sí mismas de manera diferente.

It has the potential to be an incredible experience of magnificent wonder."

Tiene el potencial de ser una experiencia increíble de maravilla magnífica".

That initial idea eventually crystallised into "Oprah Winfrey's AHA", which will take place from 2 to 4 April at the Sphere, the cutting-edge Las Vegas arena valued at 2.3 billion dollars that has hosted performances by The Backstreet Boys, Phish, the Eagles and No Doubt, as well as a popular cinematic experience of "The Wizard of Oz".

Aquel pensamiento inicial acabó cristalizando en "Oprah Winfrey's AHA", que se celebrará del 2 al 4 de abril en el Sphere, la vanguardista arena de Las Vegas valorada en 2.300 millones de dólares que ha acogido actuaciones de The Backstreet Boys, Phish, the Eagles y No Doubt, así como una popular experiencia cinematográfica de "El mago de Oz".

The two-hour live event will feature Winfrey, accompanied by special guests and performances, most notably the multi-Grammy-winning Jacob Collier, the poet and author Ocean Vuong, the musician Ajeet, and the gospel singer Wintley Phipps.

El evento en vivo de dos horas contará con la participación de Winfrey, acompañada de invitados especiales y actuaciones, entre las que destacan el multipremiado con el Grammy Jacob Collier, el poeta y autor Ocean Vuong, el músico Ajeet y el cantante de gospel Wintley Phipps.

Among the top-tier collaborators who will design the experience alongside Winfrey are the Oscar-nominated composer Max Richter, the Grammy-nominated musicians Jason White and Jon Hopkins, the playwright and MacArthur "genius grant" recipient Tarell Alvin McCraney, as well as Es Devlin, the stage designer for Beyoncé's "Formation" and "Renaissance" world tours.

Entre los colaboradores de primer nivel que diseñarán la experiencia junto a Winfrey se hallan el compositor nominado al Óscar Max Richter, los músicos nominados al Grammy Jason White y Jon Hopkins, el dramaturgo y receptor de la "beca genius" de MacArthur Tarell Alvin McCraney, así como Es Devlin, la diseñadora de escenarios de las giras mundiales "Formation" y "Renaissance" de Beyoncé.

Tickets will go on sale to the general public on September 25.

Las entradas saldrán a la venta al público general el 25 de septiembre.

Fifteen years have passed since Winfrey brought her iconic talk show to an end, which last week celebrated the 40th anniversary of its arrival in syndication in the United States.

Han transcurrido 15 años desde que Winfrey pusiera fin a su icónico programa de entrevistas, el cual celebró la semana pasada su 40.º aniversario de su llegada a la sindicación en Estados Unidos.

She has been busy with her podcast, her duties as CEO of her eponymous television network OWN, as well as with various tours and live events.

Ha estado ocupada con su pódcast, sus funciones como CEO de su cadena de televisión homónima OWN, así como con diversas giras y eventos en vivo.

At 72, when many choose retirement, Winfrey is not willing to slow down completely.

A sus 72 años, cuando muchos optan por la jubilación, Winfrey no está dispuesta a frenar por completo.

"I thought about sitting behind the gate and picking roses," Winfrey joked.

"Pensé en sentarme detrás de la reja y recoger rosas", bromeó Winfrey.

"The truth is that I have another strong decade ahead of me.

"La verdad es que tengo otra fuerte década.

I feel the urgency of time, and I feel that I have something to say... and using all these collaborators to help me say it in a more forceful, phenomenal and immersive way is my offering for this remaining decade."

Siento la urgencia del tiempo, y siento que tengo algo que decir... y usar a todos estos colaboradores para ayudarme a decirlo de una manera más contundente, fenomenal e inmersiva es mi ofrenda para esta década restante".

Although she no longer greets millions of viewers on a daily basis, Winfrey's influence remains colossal.

Aunque ya no salude a millones de televidentes a diario, la influencia de Winfrey continúa siendo colosal.

Her book club continues to be an aspiration for authors, the products featured on her "Favorite Things" list can alter a company's financial fate, and politicians still seek to obtain her endorsement.

Su club de lectura sigue constituyendo una aspiración para los autores, los productos que figuran en su lista de "Cosas favoritas" pueden alterar el destino financiero de una empresa, y los políticos aún procuran obtener su respaldo.

"I believe this opportunity has been given to me because you know that I know how to use it, I know what to do with it.

"Creo que se me ha dado esta oportunidad porque sabes que sé cómo usarla, sé qué hacer con ella.

But I keep asking myself this question: why has it been given to me?

Pero sigo haciéndome esta pregunta: ¿por qué se me ha dado?

I realise that it is such an enormous opportunity that I must not take it for granted," said the philanthropist, who still writes daily in a journal full of gratitude entries about everything she has achieved.

Me doy cuenta de que es una oportunidad tan enorme que no debo darla por sentada", dijo la filántropa, que todavía escribe a diario en un diario lleno de entradas de gratitud sobre todo lo que ha logrado.

She hopes that those attending "AHA" will be inspired to seize their own opportunities as well.

Espera que los asistentes a "AHA" se inspiren para aprovechar sus propias oportunidades también.

Maya Angelou says: 'Darling, I can see why you are where you are, because you have been obedient to the call,'" she said, recalling conversations with the poet and literary giant.

Maya Angelou dice: 'Cariño, puedo ver por qué estás donde estás porque has sido obediente al llamado'", dijo, rememorando conversaciones con la poeta y gigante literaria.

"That is my message for everyone: Everyone has the call.

"Ese es mi mensaje para todos: Todos tienen el llamado.

If you are obedient to the call, if you surrender to the call, you will be led to higher ground than you ever imagined."

Si eres obediente al llamado, si te rindes al llamado, serás conducido a un terreno más elevado de lo que jamás imaginaste".
