Following sold-out performances at the Sydney Opera House, State Theatre and City Recital Hall, this acclaimed production celebrates the music, poetry and spirit of Leonard Cohen with breathtaking originality. Presented by three-time ARIA Award-winners Monsieur Camembert, the concert offers a thrilling and deeply moving reimagining of Cohen’s songs, brought to life with virtuosic musicianship.
With a powerhouse 10-piece band, a choir and a stellar lineup of guest vocalists - including iOTA, Lyn Bowtell, Diana Rouvas, Lloyd Spiegel and Timothy James Bowen - this is far from a traditional tribute. Drawing on over three decades of repertoire, the performance is interwoven with Cohen’s poetry and rare audio of the man himself, creating a rich and immersive experience for devoted fans and newcomers alike.�
Critically praised for its musical daring and emotional resonance, the show showcases Monsieur Camembert’s signature fusion of virtuosity and soul. Expect timeless classics like “Suzanne”, “Bird on a Wire” and “Hallelujah” transformed with fresh arrangements and unforgettable energy.�
“An uplifting tribute… Monsieur Camembert does justice to the emotional, lyrical and melodic intent of the songs while adding a new dimension.” – The Weekend Australian�
An adventurous and heartfelt homage to one of the most important voices of our time.
