Concert review: Stars shine in fast-paced, touching Leonard Cohen tribute

Tower of Song: A Memorial Tribute to Leonard Cohen, our city’s international star-studded tribute to the revered poet and musician, began in grand fashion, Monday night at the Bell Centre.

Morton Rosengarten and Leonard Cohen, the best of friends

“There has been this huge vacuum in my life,” Rosengarten says of Cohen's death a year ago. “We weren’t always in the same place together, but we were always there for one another.”

I listened to CBC2 this morning in Beijing and (of course) recorded the 2-hour special programme. My ears tell me that the concert is speechless beautiful. My eyes are looking forward to CBC tele on 3 Jan, 2018.


PS: Anyone who went to live have got good memory to write down the whole setlist? Thx

Unfortunately you already hit the daily DL limits on your dropbox, Linda. :(
