Following sold-out seasons Australia-wide (including the State Theatre, Sydney Opera House, and City Recital Hall), this acclaimed production celebrates the music, poetry and spirit of Leonard Cohen with breathtaking originality.
In 2026, marking ten years since Cohen’s passing, this powerful concert experience returns renewed and strengthened, a celebration not only of music, but the enduring light he left behind. Presented by three-time ARIA Award-winners Monsieur Camembert, the concert offers a thrilling and deeply moving reimagining of Cohen’s songs, brought to life with virtuosic musicianship.
With a powerhouse 10-piece band, a choir and a stellar lineup of guest vocalists, this is an all-encompassing musical experience. Drawing on over three decades of repertoire, the performance is interwoven with Cohen’s poetry and rare audio of the man himself, allowing Cohen’s presence to move through the room; intimate, raw and unmistakable, creating a rich and immersive experience for devoted fans and newcomers alike.
Critically praised for its musical daring and emotional resonance, the show showcases Monsieur Camembert’s signature fusion of virtuosity and soul. Expect timeless classics like “Suzanne”, “Bird on a Wire” and “Hallelujah” transformed with fresh arrangements and unforgettable energy.
“Monsieur Camembert does justice to the emotional, lyrical and melodic intent of the songs while adding a new dimension.” – The Weekend Australian
An adventurous and heartfelt homage to one of the most important voices of our time.
