Idyllwild Arts Alumni: Estefania Gonzalez, Soloist, Teatro de la Ciudad, Playa Del Carmen

One World. One Idyllwild. The Series

Tryana, an 18-year-old daydreamer, songwriter, and performing artist, recently graduated from the Idyllwild Arts Academy with the class of 2024. From the age of 8, she's been honing her craft, taking piano lessons and immersing herself in the musical theater community. Her love for diverse genres, including Mexican music, Italian anthologies, pop, and R&B, reflects her boundless creativity.
Deeply believing in the power of empathy in art, Tryana sees herself as a storyteller who inspires others to express themselves authentically. Kindness, passion, and the desire to create meaningful narratives are at the core of her identity as an artist and student.
Currently, she's collaborating on an EP with LA producer Arturo Alvarez and working on a song for a Mexican Sony film. Tryana's artistic journey has been marked by notable milestones, including opening for REIK at the Cancun bullring in September 2022, where she debuted her single "Cold Eyes."
Her artistry extends beyond traditional boundaries, as seen in her collaborations with the Playa del Carmen Symphony Orchestra and her solo performances at the Teatro de la Ciudad in Playa Del Carmen. In May 2023, her second solo concert, "Daydreaming," showcased her talent alongside Playa del Carmen's finest.
Not confined to stages, Tryana embarked on a heartwarming tour of California elementary schools, bringing the story of Pinocchio to life in a vibrant and interactive performance. Her portrayal of Wendla in "Spring Awakening" further solidified her ability to captivate audiences with her emotive vocals and profound character understanding.
As she anticipates her studies at Idyllwild Arts School in California, Tryana remains dedicated to spreading joy and inspiration through her art. With each performance, she invites audiences to join her on a journey where dreams become reality, and the human spirit soars.
