NEW YORK — Ricky Martin may have been playing the relatively cozy confines of Irving Plaza on Monday night, but the Latin pop star still delivered an arena-sized show.

A crowd of approximately 1,000 radio contest winners and industry insiders packed the Manhattan club, where every available inch of stage space was commanded by Martin and his army of musicians and backup singers.

Martin still found enough room to shimmy and shake as he and his band delivered a brief, five-song set that offered a handful of cuts from his new album, Sound Loaded, which hit stores this week. The singer kicked off his set with the uptempo "She Bangs," the album's first single, and he followed it with the smoother groove of "Amor" before revving back up with "Loaded."

Despite the tight set, Martin still managed to find time for a quick costume change. The singer traded his white shirt for a black one, just before closing the show with high-energy renditions of more familiar songs, "The Cup of Life," from last year's self-titled, English-language debut, and "Maria," from 1995's A Medio Vivir.
