Aotearoa's own Imperfect Offering returns to the Turner Centre, after their hugely popular show in 2019, to present the music of Leonard Cohen. With a brand new programme titled "Of Love and Loss - Songs of Leonard Cohen", bringing the beauty and profound depth of Leonard Cohen's words and music, centred around stories and themes of love and the ache of loss. The band takes you on a journey from Cohen's first album 'Songs of Leonard Cohen' in 1967 to his album 'You Want it Darker' released just weeks before his death in 2016. With a story that spans his Greek Island life with his muse Marianne and New York's artist hang-out Chelsea Hotel and a meeting with Janis Joplin. Imperfect Offering will present his most beloved songs.
Imperfect Offering was formed by lead singer Peter McMillan in 2014 from established rock, jazz and classical musicians. They appeared on TVNZ News on the event of Cohen's death in November 2016 and were selected to be represented on the official Leonard Cohen website Cohencentric. They have toured nationally since 2016 attracting great reviews and standing ovations.
Their growing repertoire includes the astonishing Hallelujah, Suzanne, Chelsea Hotel, I Tried to Leave You, Bird on the Wire and songs from Cohen's extraordinary album 'You Want it Darker'.
"Cohen's music captured perfectly with the incredible talent of the whole band" RADIO 13
"Fantastic night plus a full house and standing ovation"
"Makes the spirit soar".
