PYURE TRIBUTE TO COHEN AND CASSIDY

This show focuses on the lives and works of Leonard Cohen (1934–2016) and Eva Cassidy (1963-1996). Many people know Leonard Cohen, but who was Eva Cassidy? If the word ‘pure’ applies to someone, then it must be Eva Cassidy, the singer who died much too early. Wary from glitter, glamour, pomp and circumstance Cassidy always searched for the essence of a carefully chosen song.

Her interpretations of well-known and less well-known songs were always accurate and often better than the original. Singer, guitarist Jos van Rens, singers Wietske Boesveld, Nienke Crijns and Cassidy’s  biographer Johan Bakker, bring a fascinating tribute to these unique musicians. They do so with stories, songs and many musical examples. Don’t miss this performance!
