Timo Tuominen – Brel x 3

Timo Tuominen, member of the National Theatre’s troupe, will perform the songs of Jacques Brel during three evenings at the National Theatre in Vallila.

A true Brel expert, Tuominen has translated almost 80 of the Belgian singer-songwriter’s (1929-1938) songs. His interpretations, accompanied by virtuoso musicians, offer a musical evening full of life and emotion.

The songs really come alive in the heart of the listener. Live in front of living people – that’s where chanson is at home,” says Timo Tuominen.
