\u2018There is a crack in everything, that\u2019s how the light gets in\u2019 Cohen\u2019s most memorable and visionary line from his song ANTHEM. If ever there was a sentence in modern poetry to reflect on and give hope and understanding to us all, it is this line. This Concert begins with ANTHEM.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Enigmatic, mysterious and sub textural, songwriter Leonard Cohen was an unflinching character, with an exact sense of prose, wry humour and the courage to wrestle with the unspoken, forgiving human frailty with the stroke of each word.<\/p>\n

The chilling announcement of Leonard’s death marked the end of an era. His music befriended an entire generation. Within every line of his writing, he has been challenging us to listen more carefully, speak more thoughtfully, think more deeply and recognize our own fragility. Our World misses him very much.<\/p>\n

With a lifetime reputation of performing in this exact way and an undying love of the \u2018pure song\u2019 Keith James<\/strong> gives you a concert of Cohen\u2019s amazing material in the most intimate and sensitive way imaginable, exposing the solitary inner strength of his greatest songs in their original perfect form. Keith has performed an extensive tour of this concert in Theatres and Arts Centres across the UK, giving almost 500 concerts \u2013 close to 150,000 people. This has proved to be one of the greatest honours in Keith James\u2019 40 year career. Keith lives in Powys, Wales and sometimes in Andalusia, Spain.<\/p>\n

Included in the concert are Cohen\u2019s well known songs: Famous Blue Raincoat, Sisters of Mercy, Suzanne and Hallelujah alongside his rarer and profound writing such as Who by Fire, Joan of Arc and Secret Life. Also included are songs from his posthumous album Thanks for the Dance<\/em> and Keith\u2019s dramatic performances based on the work of Federico Garcia Lorca \u2013 Cohen\u2019s greatest influence. Keith has also transcribed into song one of Leonard\u2019s poems from his collection \u2018Book of longing\u2019 written whilst on retreat during the 1990s.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
