Musical Muses and MusingsThis Week's Musical Muse: Leonard Cohen, Hallelujah (Live In London) In this moving live performance from London's O2 Arena, Leonard Cohen weaves his magic with "Hallelujah," his timeless meditation on love, loss, and faith. He was 73 years old at the time, and despite the years, his voice still had a captivating depth to it as he poured his heart into the memorable lyrics. He captivates the audience with the help of a talented band and soaring harmonies, and their rapt attention culminates in a resounding standing ovation. Witnessing this artistic mastery at such an age is truly inspiring, a testament to the enduring power of Cohen's artistry and the boundless spirit of music. 113 Cherry St., #92768, Seattle, WA 98104-2205 |
