Leonard Cohen (4.5/5)
Perth Arena
13th November 2013
Crystal clear renditions, each instrument played by a master, a chorus line in perfect harmony, a poet both reverential and revered. It is rare to go to a concert with every number delivered perfectly. Is it pedantic to suggest a little more variety in tempo would have enlivened an experience that seared the soul with heartbreak and joy? From the bitter sweet spoken words of A Thousand Kisses Deep, to the humble If it Be Your Will, sung in sublime harmony by the Webb Sisters and the optimism of Anthem; Leonard Cohen delivers a eulogy shaped by 79 years of life's experiences with which few will compare.
